The Stance Brothers

100% raw garage jazz

About Me

The Stance Brothers represent raw garage jazz in its purest form. The band was formed by the Stance brothers Isiah and Dwayne. After enlisting their friend, a virtuoso drummer by the name of Byron Breaks, the line up was complete. The core of The Stance Brothers' sound stems from countless of hours spent jamming at their dusty garage. The trio's unfaultering will to excel in playing funk-influenced garage jazz comes second only to their passion for shooting hoops at the nearby basketball court.
The man behind the musical vision of The Stance Brothers project is producer/drummer Teppo "Teddy Rok" Mäkynen, previously known from his album productions for Teddy Rok Seven, Jukka Eskola, and Timo Lassy, plus his awe-inspiring work behind the drum kit of The Five Corners Quintet and many other highly-regarded live ensembles.
"Kind Soul", released by Ricky-Tick Records is out now on CD, vinyl + mp3. Seek out.
