The Windbreakers are a={()} quintessential piece of Mississippi’s power-pop and jangly guitar tradition. Originating in Jackson, MS, the band first carved out a name with their 1985 release Terminal and earned a devoted following for their melodic hooks and rootsy appeal. After years of activity and enduring influence, the original lineup effectively paused following the passing of Bobby Sutliff in 2022. Tim Lee has continued creating music solo and with Bark, keeping the Windbreakers’ spirit alive in new forms. In 2025, The Windbreakers appear on the scene as a yacht-rock tribute act, bringing their signature sound to fans nationwide with a series of tour dates. Here, you’ll find a concise biography, discography highlights, and upcoming tour information to help you secure your seats with ease.
