The One Man Band Broke Up is a 2010 studio album by American hip hop artist Ceschi, released on Fake Four Inc. and Equinox Records. It is a concept album about the rise and fall of a musician named Julius.
Brett Uddenberg of URB gave the album 4 stars out of 5, saying, "Ceschi brilliantly captures the beauty of the musician pouring his soul into his craft in spite of the transitory and often-unappreciated nature of such an existence." Chris Faraone of The Phoenix gave the album 4 stars out of 4 and called it "a triumph of triumphs."
Joe Hemmerling of Tiny Mix Tapes gave the album 3.5 stars out of 5, saying, "The One Man Band Broke Up isn't an easy listen, nor a uniformly enjoyable one, but if you've got the stomach for it, it will take you places that few other artists dare to tread." Thomas Quinlan of Exclaim! said, "The One Man Broke Up is an ambitious effort, but Ceschi succeeds in telling his story with great detail and atmosphere."
