Four80East
(только на английском)

Four80East is the brainchild of producers Rob DeBoer and Tony Grace, also known internationally for their indie label/production house, Boomtang. Originally conceived in the studio in 1997 as a side project from the more commercial pop music they had been working on, Four80East was born as a small indie release in England later that year, simply entitled "The Album". What began as a whim went on to revitalize the Smooth Jazz world the following summer when they broke through in the States with "Eastside", a mid-tempo groover that became the seventh most-played track on Contemporary Jazz radio that year.

In early 2000, their follow-up album "Nocturnal" was released by Higher Octave Music to wide acclaim.
This "stylish set of late-night grooves" was listed by JazzTimes magazine as one of the top 50 albums of that year.

"Round 3" followed in 2002, and saw the band start to make the transition from studio project to live act. Four80East made their live debut at the Catalina Island Jazztrax Festival in October of 2003.

"En Route" was produced over most of 2005 and 2006, as the boys were juggling a variety of other projects, including raising their families (they have five boys between them). With a new label - Native Language Music - behind them, Four80East is back in the saddle!
