Although the Break Mechanics never really officially announced that they had broken up, the notion became clear as the members each split off from the collective to work on their own projects and pursue other interests. It was a shame, because the crew never got a proper sendoff. So it's good news then to find out that some of the founding members of the band are getting back together to throw a show on Saturday, April 11, at Tooey's; bassist Casey Sidwell, keyboardist Greg "Ray Ray" Raymond, drummer Daren Hahn and rappers P.A.A.S., Lo, and Big House will all be on hand for the one-time show. The majority of the material will undoubtedly come from the act's self-titled album, which you can get a sample of after the jump.
