In June 1991 four members of the Entertainers said goodbye to the
band and hello to DINK PERRY, lead vocalist of The Breeze Band to
form what is now THE BREEZE. This 7 piece high powered
musical/performance band has captured rave reviews with their
energy and absolute versatility.
With 6 lead vocalist, a great rhythm and horn section, this band
entertains you with the best in Top 40, Beach, and Show! The
versatility of the band has landed them the opportunity to perform
as the opening band for concerts with Delbert McClinton
(Charlotte, NC), NASCAR opening ceremonies (Daytona Beach, Fla.),
and Lou Rawls (Greenville, NC) (Wilmington, NC), Jerry Butler
(2000 Cammy Awards) as well as concerts, dance clubs, corporate
and private parties all over the east coast! They have had Tommy
Shaw (Styx), Brent Carter (Tower of Power), John Michael
Montgomery (National Country Singer), along with others come up
and sit in with the band and sing. Those guys don’t come up and
sing with just any band!
The BREEZE is one of the Southeast’s most recognized bands. Their
material and willingness to please audiences everywhere they go is
their biggest asset! This self-contained powerhouse utilizes
state-of-the-art sound and lights at all venues.
The BREEZE has the some of the best vocals of any band they’ve
seen says club owners and fans up and down the east coast. Them
going out into crowds and singing their acappella renditions of
Huey Lewis’s (It’s Alright), People Get Ready (Breeze CD Something
Serious) and So Fine has everyone talking!
The BREEZE has taken their strong writing and arranging talents
and turned them into the first new BREEZE CD….SOMETHING SERIOUS
1995. In 1996 they came out with their second CD….SECOND WIND,
which won the number one Beach song and Broadcast song of the year
at the 96 Cammy Awards. They finished their third CD…..BY REQUEST
