On July 4, 1980, a group of talented musicians from eastern NC set out on a journey that would ultimately take them throughout the Southeastern United States, gain them thousands of devoted fans, see them inducted into the Beach Music Hall of Fame, earning five CAMMY Awards and establish them as one of beach music's all-time best.
The Breeze Band's signature sound, featuring tight vocal harmonies, polished brass and rhythm sections, along with state-of-the-art sight and sound system enables them to perform a varied list of well-know and original songs from genres including beach, soul, R&B, and the classics.

The Donald Thompson Band delivers rousing versions of blues, vintage rhythm 'n' blues and classic rock, entertaining and delighting audiences of all ages wherever they go.  The band's colorful stage attire harkens back to the "cool threads" worn by the performers in the legendary days of vinyl records.  Couple this look with dynamic vocals, hot guitars, wailing harmonica, rocking piano and Hammond organ, and in-the-groove drumming and you've got a treat for both the eyes and the ears.  Audiences are swept up by the band's energy and the good-time feeling they emit.  So, come see and hear them for yourself.  You're gonna love 'em!
