Before summer disappears completely, San Jose’s All City Elite is releasing a new single “The Breaks,” a mellow reggae-influenced jam that conjures up feelings of warm sunny days and beach barbeque parties. “The Breaks” is the first single off of All City Elite’s new EP, scheduled for an early October release.

While All City Elite has always fused elements of hip-hop, rock and pop together, reggae, as heard on “The Breaks,” is new territory.

“We have never been locked into a specific genre or style, partly due to the fact that there has been a revolving door of musicians in the ACE’s roster over the years, and also the desire to just have fun with it and let it flow,” says ACE lead singer Casey Sky. “Several members of the band have been playing in the SJ scene for many years, and the idea behind ACE was to bring together these talented people and let them create without restrictions or expectations.”
