Toronto based Broken Bricks is an exceptionally unique brand of young talent with a sound that freely borrows from the great rock n’ roll tradition, injecting a strong sense of melody and a restless, excited energy. Beyond their eclectic sound, it is their polished and animated live show that continues to create a buzz and gain the band a following.
Broken Bricks consists of Marlon Chaplin and Luke Kuplowsky, both songwriters and multi-instrumentalist fleshed out by Joey Clement on bass and backing vocals and Matt Duncan on drums and percussive duties. What brought these two together can best be described as serendipitous; an impromptu jam session after an unexpected meeting in their highschool hallway—Chaplin with guitar in hand, Kuplowsky wielding his harmonica and as the story goes, ìno one spoke, they only playedî. From that day forward they began writing and playing as Broken Bricks.
Both write lyrically complex tales with authenticity and put those tales to a dynamic, unique Rock N’ Roll sound. Drawing from the the firebrand lyricism of Elvis Costello, the melancholic winsome of Damon Albarn, the wistful melodies of the Kinks and the ebullient energy of The Who; Broken Bricks has mastered the art of combining catchy hooks with exceptional storytelling.
