“…The more I listen to the album the more I’m enjoying all the songs and the music… This album is just flat out filled with good, old time fun music!!” – - No Depression
“This isn’t a band to just sit back and relax to. It’s time to put away your suit and tie and break out your whiskey jug because the Brothers Comatose aren’t going to take no for an answer.” – - Performer Magazine
“With an authentic sound and not one element of corporate tackiness in its DNA, albums like this should not go unnoticed by the general public” – - Maverick Magazine
BIO:
The Brothers Comatose formed in the Morrison Living Room, birthed from the sonic gumbo of the famous Morrison Music Parties. The band consists of Ben and Alex Morrison – hairy brothers, both singing, with Ben on Guitar, and Alex on banjo; Gio Benedetti on bass and vocals, Ryan Avellone on Mandolin, and Philip Brezina on fiddle.
In just two years the mighty quintet has made their way from the street corners and dive bars of their native San Francisco, to performances at such legendary places as the Strawberry Music Festival, the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival, the High Sierra Festival, toured the United States to the Eastern banks of the Mississippi and shared stages with The Devil Makes Three, Justin Townes Earl, Trampled by Turtles, Greensky Bluegrass, John Doe and the Sadies, Or, The Whale, and others.
The band is looking forward to appearances at 2012′s South by Southwest Festival, The Kate Wolf Festival, and plenty of touring to support a new album to be released in May 2012.
Their shows exude a foot-stomping, shout-along, drink-along ease that was once a staple in every music-playing, front-stoop-possessing home in the land. Their shows can’t help but remind folk that music is collective, is for dancing, is for sharing, and for whatever else you might do with friends and family in your own living room.
