Details

Join The Breakaway on Thursday, March 28th, for our 8th Anniversary!
Eight years already! Thank you so much to everyone who’s been a part of the Breakaway through the years!
Come on out and celebrate with us and the Hot Baked Goods. There will be music, dancing, fun, friends, raffle prizes, and cake!

About the Band:
The Hot Baked Goods was founded in October 2012 on a concrete staircase on the west side of Dolores Park by a small group of swing dancer friends. They worked up their chops playing for passing MUNI trains and rehearsing in the living room of Bay Area traditional jazz guru Clint Baker. Over time, the band moved their practice to a more central location in the park where friends came to dance, eat, and enjoy San Francisco culture. They played near the playground almost every Saturday for a year and a half. Children clapped, wiggled, and giggled, neighborhood parents asked them to play for their kid’s birthday parties; it was a joyous time.
The ‘Goods look forward to learning and growing as musicians, and friends, with each passing year. They’re endlessly grateful to their long-standing regular fans and new ones alike, and hope to see you at a dance or party soon!
