Breeze’s new album, “Sour Grapes,” delves into the complexities of human relationships and builds upon the 90s-inspired sound of their 2021 album "Only Up," which received critical acclaim from the likes of CBC Music, Stereogum, and NPR. Originally a solo project led by Toronto-based producer Josh Korody (known for his work with Tess Parks, Dilly Dally, Fucked Up, Weaves, Dirty Nil, Beliefs), Breeze has since evolved into a full band following their debut performance for KEXP Live At Home Sessions. "Sour Grapes" is a new wave - britpop inspired album was recorded by Korody at his Candle Recording studio, at Hotel 2 Tango with Shae Brossard, and mastered by Mark Gardiner of RIDE. “Sour Grapes” marks an exciting direction for this anticipated full-length and full band follow up. "a fun, referential mix that celebrates the idealized hedonism of his favorite records" - PITCHFORK "a rising electro-psych artist makes a bold new impression" - CLASH "a playful mix of shoegaze, Britpop, and disco" - NEW & NOTABLE / DAILY BANDCAMP “frenetically fun album – energetic and eclectic” – SONG OF THE DAY / KEXP "an intriguing ambience that meshes disco with post-punk" - STEREOGUM FOR FANS OF: Happy Mondays, Gang of Four, Wire, Gorillaz, Nation Of Language, Shame, Slowthai, Fontaines D.C.
