From their electrifying beginnings in the velvety ambiance of Dièse Onze to commanding the big stages of prestigious festivals on both sides of the Atlantic, The Brooks have cemented their reputation as an undeniable groove machine. Inspired by legends like James Brown, Fela Kuti, and Herbie Hancock, The Brooks navigates seamlessly through funk, soul, r’n’b, afrobeat, and jazz.
The core lineup features visionary bassist and co-founder Alexandre Lapointe, the charismatic singer and trombonist Alan Prater, the innovative guitarist Philippe Look, and the dynamic percussionist Philippe Beaudin. The Brooks is more than the sum of its parts: they’re a powerhouse that celebrates over 50 years of Afro-American musical evolution, staying true to its roots while delivering a sound that’s fresh and relevant today.
