Breakestra
Just wondered if anyone else has heard of this lot. From LA, they've released two albums so far (one live, I think, but I've not heard that, and their most recent one, 2005's 'Hit The Floor') and they're FUNKY AS HELL.
They're also on a small venued European tour as of around now, I'd recommend checking them out. More info at ubiquityrecords.com - and let me know if you'll be going to the Manchester gig!

I have heard their 'Live Mix Tape' medley, and I know their concept. They really play some great tunes, even if it's all covers.

TRS: that first album was all covers, yes. Their new one (which I was talking about) is all original.
And funky as hell.
