Mark Roberts and Breeze is undoubtedly the best and freshest sound to come out of the Myrtle Beach area in years.
 
This 7 piece band features talent you've heard with some of the best bands in the region. The vocals alone are astounding with every one in the band bringing a lot of soul to the musical table. The players on stage, featuring a solid rhythm section and blazing two-piece horn section, are a well-oiled musical machine that brings the best to R&B, Soul, and Beach Music.
 
Mark Roberts and Breeze also features not one but two solo recording artists. Gary Lowder has a solo album out; "Shag Bag". His first solo offering, it has been getting major airtime on the beach stations.
