You can play 35 notes if you really want. 3 sounds just fine from over here
Brothers Groove have a
lot of miles on the clock. Their music is not, by any definition, cutting edge or
new: stylish blues and funk with a little bit of jazz in the mix. Hipster bands half their age might well
sniff – until they see how much work the band gets.
Then again, hip or not hip is beside the point. Lots of people try to get this stuff right in the UK; many miss the mark. Brothers Groove are doing ok: their music breathes. It
has space and taste. Think Robben Ford, Crusaders, Little Feat, Steely Dan in
their prime. That kind of ballpark. And...` they’re brummies. There’s a second album in the can - samples later in in this post - and a plan.
