Brekky Boy's performance at the Enmore Theatre supporting Snarky Puppy was absolutely mind blowing. The last song in particular, 'Blue Cow' took me on a journey, weaving in and out of jazz, electronic and hip-hop beats. The improvisatory interplay between the keys, drums and bass showed a very high level of musicianship and compositional skill - flowing effortlessly from one section to another. The crowd absolutely loved it!
