Blackburn - Brotherhood

There are rare discs that you know you’re going to love seconds into the first track and Brotherhood is just such a disc. These guys have been playing forever at the Bamboo Club on Queen Street in Toronto and the confidence and smoothness of their delivery can’t be underestimated. Brotherhood is less funk and more blues but it still smolders and burns with wicked B3 organ work and silky vocals by Duane Blackwood. Brothers Cody (drums) and Brooke (guitar) and childhood buddy Mark Ayee (bass) complete the lineup. Fever, The Thrill is Gone and Movin’ are all stand out tracks. Gimme more!
