The story of Brother Son begins with four unlikely friends of disparate musical tastes and backgrounds uniting over a shared love of Alabama Shakes, The Strokes, Mac DeMarco, and ganj. Their music reflects this, bringing a unique blend of bluesy soul and jazzy smoothness to indie rock. And so they began in early 2017 with their debut EP Young & Pretty, the first order of business being to play as many shows in as many midwestern cities as they could. Rising quickly to local prominence, by the end of that year they began headlining and selling out shows at venues like El Club, The Shelter, and The Loving Touch. Now, with a tour under their belts as well, they’ve been gearing up to release their second LP, Goodies, with even more tucked away for a third project slated for early 2020. With all that locked and loaded, their next move will be east and west coast tours this summer.

Their first take of the record comes in the form of the new single “Candy,” a very minimalistic track that relies a lot on slow burn music that grows as the song goes by and incredible vocals. The video captures most of the somber and quiet spirit of the tune itself.

About the song, the band comments:

“Candy is a song that highlights the battle between life and love. It’s a cry for help for anyone to experience and work towards a free spirited life with me. A life free of worry and doubt built together by two congruent halves. Life can be tough but love can be as well, and it is important to be open to and experience it all with your significant other, which candy is trying to communicate.

Love, 

Brother Son”
