BRHTR

In the organizer's words:

A front porch somewhere in the American South, golden late summer light on a Sunday afternoon. At the end of the weekend, the musicians get together for a relaxed session. They drink beer and make music together. This is the kind of feel-good scenario you like to imagine when you listen to the new BRTHR album.

Because the music lives from unagitated depth and calm serenity. The protagonists are by no means sprightly Americana veterans, but comparatively young lads with deep roots in (primarily American) music history.

The roots of the two Stuttgart-based soul brothers Philipp Eißler (guitar, vocals) and Joscha Brettschneider (guitar) lie in folk and country, soft rock and AOR - but now mainly in soul. BRTHR combine southern soul with blue-eyed pop in their very own way. They do this with a relaxed matter-of-factness that makes their seemingly unspectacular songs sound surprisingly mature, airy and sunny.
