Influenced by <a href="spotify:artist:4N8BwYTEC6XqykGvXXlmfv">George Benson</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:03YhcM6fxypfwckPCQV8pQ">Wes Montgomery</a>, Zachary Breaux was a flexible guitarist who could handle soul-jazz, post-bop, and hard bop as well as more commercial pop-jazz and NAC music. Though the jazzman only recorded a handful of albums -- including 1992's Groovin' and 1994's Laidback, both on <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22NYC%22">NYC</a>, and Uptown Groove on <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Zebra%22">Zebra</a> -- he kept busy as a sideman in the 1980s and 1990s and backed such major artists as <a href="spotify:artist:2dRsXWVnkku2cMDtV1h6NP">Stanley Turrentine</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:0GX5PlFlvOiEdNvA7YHJzs">Jack McDuff</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:3ZUZYvTkSr7kJQyAXVpqaL">Donald Byrd</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:2hdpXvaQJHBCZIVUd6cLvK">Lonnie Liston Smith</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:2H3xDjMmp31iLmsgXxLFyI">Dee Dee Bridgewater</a>. It was in 1984 that he met vibist/singer <a href="spotify:artist:6R9Mv0bgGE4Tqxna1q5Mrj">Roy Ayers</a>, who he played with extensively. Signed to <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Zebra%22">Zebra</a> in 1996, Breaux seemed to have a bright future ahead of him, but tragically, the guitarist was only in his thirties when he died in Miami Beach after attempting to save a swimmer in distress on February 20, 1997. ~ Alex Henderson, Rovi
