Globe Hall Presents The Brudi Brothers on Monday, May 19th.
The Brudi Brothers are a dynamic Americana band hailing from Seattle, Washington. Often recognized as the city’s favorite buskers and street poets, they are known for their raucous performances and distinctive old-world soul that stands out in the world of modern music. They gained rapid popularity worldwide when a live clip of their latest single, “Me More Cowboy Than You,” went viral, with over 10 million views cumulatively and quickly rising. Comprising of three brothers, Johannes, Conrad, and George, the boys have an inimitable musical and performance dynamic replete with wit and humor. They are all multi instrumentalists and have been playing together since they were kids. They have traveled the world together, their musical commentary drawing from adventures hitchhiking through Europe, living on sailboats, and performing for the Queen of The Netherlands to create their unusually hypnotic sound.
Listeners who discovered the band via their social media virality have eagerly taken to their 2020 album, See You Soon. Recorded on a houseboat in Amsterdam with a sound engineer paid in beer and tobacco, the project encapsulates a thoughtful and intimate slice of life immediately preceding the COVID-19 pandemic. They traverse genres with poignant and vibrant lyrics, understated instrumentation, and playful harmonies.
The Brudi Brothers have carved out a unique space in the Pacific Northwest music scene and beyond, pairing familiar beloved influences with blood harmonies and melodies unique to the brothers. With a blend of old school folk, country, and rock-and-roll feel, the band is known for their ability to play to any crowd. Their infectious sound and electrifying chemistry on stage has earned them a loyal fanbase, who can’t get enough of the band’s simultaneous earnestness and irreverence.
