Born of collective joy and radical vision, percussionist Mariá Portugal, cellist Paula Sanchez and violinist gabby fluke-mogul indulge in a convergence of improvisation and composition - a union of three forces, like three lava flows. Together in motion, they sink deep into explosive overflows of raw energy. It is the eroticism of life in motion: an overflow of laughter or a breakfast that never ends. With an expansive alchemy, Endless Breakfast is committed to relentlessly serving the spirit of music - where sound, sensation and spontaneity merge into a continuous eruption of presence.

gabby fluke-mogul is a Brooklyn-based violinist, improviser, composer, educator, organizer, and doula. Her playing, which she weaves into experimental threads of improvised music, has been described as "embodied, visceral, and virtuosic" and "the most distinctive sound in improvised music in years." Of her 2022 solo release on Relative Pitch Records, Best of Jazz writes: "LOVE SONGS is graspable within the first few seconds of playing. It has a rare density...infinitely beautiful and magnificently poignant." Gabby is proud to have performed with Nava Dunkelman, Joanna Mattrey, Ava Mendoza, Charles Burnham, Fred Frith, Luke Stewart, Zeena Parkins, Tcheser Holmes, Lotte Anker, Susana Santos Silva, Dave Rempis, Lily Finnegan, Nate Wooley, Lester St. Louis, William Parker, Dimos Vryzas and Pauline Oliveros as well as many other musicians, poets, dancers and visual artists. gabby has toured the US and Europe. and Europe, with performances at Cafe OTO (London), Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation (Lisbon), Curva Minore (Palermo), Stadtgarten (Cologne), Constellation (Chicago), Schl8hof (Wels), Pulitzer Arts Foundation (St. Louis), Roulette (Brooklyn), The Stone (Manhattan), Lab (San Francisco) and Temescal Arts Center (Oakland).

Located at the intersection of experimental music, free improvisation and performance art, Paula Sanchez's work focuses on the composition/decomposition of a mutable sound space. With a distinctly interdisciplinary profile, she found her first voice as a performer and composer in the fields of theater and performance art. She completed her music degree in cello at the University of San Juan, Argentina. She later obtained two Master's degrees - in Improvisation at the Music Academy in Basel and in Contemporary Art Practice/Sound Art at the Bern University of the Arts in Switzerland. Since 2018, she has been active in contemporary music and improvisation circles in Europe and has participated in numerous concerts and projects in Switzerland, France, Germany and Spain. She is characterized by the use of extended techniques and unconventional ways of playing, working with materials such as plastic, glass and elements from nature in combination with voice and electronics. She is the pure presence of an embodied sound that invents its relationships as it makes its way into the void.
