★ DUSK BROTHERS ★ With an unconventional arsenal of self-built instruments fused with growling vocal harmonies the Dusk Brothers’ gritty foot-stomping dark swamp blues sound is huge and distinctive
Following the release of their critically acclaimed debut EP Storms, Rum, Liars and Guns, Dusk Brothers are back on tour this year to promote their new 5 track album, Roses In The Bonecart. ★ “Infuriatingly talented… inventive, organic, and great fun” Devil’s Gate Music ★ “Absolutely phenomenal” Sid Randell (Ghostrider Country Music Radio)
The Dusk Brothers’ (Gray and ‘E’ Moncrieff) sound draws heavily on their unconventional arsenal of self-built instruments. Guitars fashioned from old metal boxes, “Frankenstein” foot drums created by ripping down 55 gallon oil drums and bolting them onto sawn-off bass drum shells and custom valve guitar amplifiers built from scratch in their own workshop provide a raw, bluesy backdrop for growling vocal harmonies and blues harp. These “cowboy-hatted shamans'” visceral live shows continue to astound audiences and accrue a dedicated fanbase at venues and festivals across the UK including the acclaimed Buckle & Boots Country Festival and coveted main stage appearances at Tenby Blues Festival and Carlisle Blues Rock Festival. Dusk Brothers featured in award winning director Virginia Heath’s documentary ‘Cigar Box Blues – The Makers Of A Revolution’, broadcast on BBC One and BBC Four. The debut EP “Storms, Rum, Liars and Guns” was released in 2019. During the 2020 lockdown the brothers transformed the ramshackle garage they use as a rehearsal room into a pallet-wood-clad private rum bar and live-streaming and recording studio. They continue to stream “The Dusk Brothers Show LIVE” on Friday nights from their infamous Rum Shack. The five track album “Roses In The Bonecart” went live in August 2024 with the release party held at the final date of their first headline tour at The Fleece in Bristol.
