Robot Breakdancing Union Anthology
by Andy Berman, Carl Habermehl, Rick Katschke and Mike Schmalz (Robot Breakdancing Union)
In 2003, Andy Berman, Carl Habermehl, Rick Katschke and Mike Schmalz formed the band Robot Breakdancing Union. They would go on to win their high school's Battle of the Bands that year, but immediately became J.D. Sallinger-esque reclusives, never performing publicly again. However, over the past six years, they've pulled an XTC and have recorded a large sum of music. In the Robot Breakdancing Union Anthology, Andy, Carl, Rick and Mike tell the stories behind these songs and play the studio recording at the end of the episode. A good number of these songs have not been heard by anyone outside of the foursome. It will be a long journey, sometimes painful, sometimes euphoric, but always entertaining.
