Do you have Morning Breath?

Molly & Luke were friends for years without ever knowing there was shared music in their future. They became romantically entwined last year and quickly started singing together. After an informal show in April they kicked off a mad spree of writing songs and learning covers, booking more shows along the way. The next step was looping in the insanely talented supporting cast of friends that now makes up the full six-piece rock combo. Releasing an album at the end of February and hitting the road on a three-stop tour has this band revved and ready for more. Now engaged to be married, bandleaders Luke & Molly expect to be writing and playing all the way down that dusty trail.

 

The scrappy folk sound of the duo set has evolved into a dynamic brand of rock-pop-folk, and Morning Breath is now able to entrance audiences with intricate, paired-down arrangements as well as breaking out some serious butt-shaking dance numbers. This group is always engaging, always full-hearted, and always peppered with irreverence.

 

Though Morning Breath is very new, the band consists of musicians who’ve played together in various Portland projects for years. The longstanding musical connection and camaraderie shines through during live shows, giving fresh songs a solid foundation of rock goodness, three-part vocal harmonies, and occasional cello, saxophone and glockenspiel. Be ready. Morning Breath is here.
