About Me

Early 2001 Breadfoot landed hisself in Brooklyn, NY. He started kicking around Manhattan's East Village music scene. Couple of self released recordings and several trips to the UK later he got tangled up with NYC's Paleface and formed Just About to Burn.
JATB recorded a full length that was released on ArtMonkey Records Kicked some shows in the UK and then after returning from two weeks on the road in the states with JATB, well Breadfoot decided it was time to move on.
It was right around then Breadfoot got word that the good folks at Holden Records had gotten an earful. Result was the release of the Funhouse Recordings Jan. 05 in both the UK and Europe.
That same spring right on the heels of the Funhouse release Breadfoot returned to London to record Tea with Leo. The new record got worked up at Café Music in London. It was produced by Leo Abrahams, (Ed Hardcourt, David Holmes, Brian Eno), and features London based violinist Anna Phoebe, (String Master and Lead Soloist For the double platinum selling TSO).
Tea with Leo was released on Jeeziepeezie Records back in October and is getting great reviews. Music from the release has been featured on NPR and in the documentary 10MPH.
"NYC / London acoustic work-out of unspeakable gorgeousness...a record to treasure"
- Americana UK
"As fresh and inspiring as watching the sunrise...
Ms. Phoebe's violin sounds like heaven in digital format...Extraordinarily fulfilling"
- Babysue.com
"Extremely lovely...one of those records you reach for to ease you into or out of your day as it brings with it great calm and untroubled prettiness of sound that can't help but induce wistful sighs and fond memories"
- Comes with a Smile
United States $10.95 incl. shipping
United Kingdom and the rest of the world $12.95 incl. shipping
So dig it here we go...from Seattle to Boston at 10 MPH. And along the way beyond a bunch of other great tunes you can get an earful of an alternative take of Polly Loved Me ( I Know), a tune from my latest Tea with Leo.

And in case yer wondering well, 10MPH is a comical documentary that follows a pair of aspiring filmmakers as they quit their jobs and turn a friend's ludicrous idea into a movie.

It's been shown at a host of festivals and has even won several best documentary awards. To score yerself a copy just clink on the links below.

And oh say yeah if ya want to know even more about the film you can go to www.10mph.com .
