Artist In The Spotlight: Week 7

Currently touring with Ben Howard around the UK, Brother And Bones are lead by the strong vocals of Rich Thomas. Having seen him perform an acoustic set only yesterday, I can only start out by saying how brilliant he is live. The music has a folk twist to it, and is fresh and captivating, whether Rich Thomas plays on his own, or with his band.
Their first EP called 'Skin' was released in June 2011, and featured their first single 'Back To Shore'. It will keep you tapping your feet all the way through, with the catchy beat and great vocals.
The five piece band describe themselves as being made up of not just musicians, but painters, photographers and film makers, setting them apart from the standard pop band lead by a stand out front man. Having performed to a packed out Rescue Rooms yesterday, and engaging and chatting with the crowd as well as delivering a solid acoustic set, it seems Rich Thomas and his band are set for more than just the local pub gigs going around.

Just a one of self promotion! The first track from our Autumn EP! Take a look and a listen, let us know what you think :)
