About.
Breakin’ Strings is a New England based bluegrass band, started 20 years ago. After a 10-year hiatus, they are back and better than ever. Led by Cliff Gelina, and backed by some of New England’s finest musicians, featuring Cody Howe, Sam Acus, Amanda Burtchell, Dan Bartley, Kailey Zercher and David Bevins. They have a hard driving bluegrass sound that brings people to their feet. They will also blow you away with their strong ballads and tight harmonies. Cliff Gelina’s voice has been compared to the sounds of Chris Stapleton, Dan Tyminski, Larry Cordle, and Russell Moore. The musicianship in this group will keep you dancing with a smile on your face.
