The Circuit Breakers

  • Rare Olde Times 10602 Patterson Ave Richmond VA United States (map)

The Circuit Breakers are a powerhouse classic R&B and Soul band whose core members have been performing together for more than 30 years. Their longevity shows in every groove—tight rhythms, seamless vocal blends, and a musical chemistry that only decades of shared stages can create.

Fronted by the soulful lead vocals of Mark Holmes, the band’s sound is anchored by Mike James on drums and vocals, whose deep pocket and dynamic feel drive every tune. Bill Elliott holds down the low end on bass with smooth precision and rich harmonies, while Greg Constantino brings both lead and rhythm guitar firepower, adding texture and melodic flair. On keys and vocals, Lonnie Lemco layers warm chords, classic organ tones, and vibrant harmonies that round out the band’s signature sound. Completing the lineup is Chris Moody, whose saxophone, flute, and percussion work add color, soul, and expressive energy to every performance.

Together, Circuit Breakers delivers a timeless blend of Motown, funk, and soul classics—music that moves people, fills dance floors, and brings audiences back to the golden era of R&B with a fresh, modern spark. Their shows aren’t just performances; they’re celebrations of groove, musicianship, and the enduring power of playing together as one.
