JEFF The Brotherhood have recently announced details of their Spring tour which has just been extended throughout the summer and will include a homecoming show on June 15, at this year’s Bonnaroo festival in Manchester, TN. All tour dates are listed below. The band, comprised of brothers Jake (guitars, vocals) and Jamin Orrall (drums) will perform half of their set as they traditionally do, a duo, and half the set as a quartet, adding a guitarist, Karl (from St. Paul, MN – a Pisces) as well as keyboardist, Christina (from Nashville, TN – a Taurus). They’re already a very powerful musical motor as a duo, so, when expanding the Brotherhood to a quartet, what can one expect? Massive voluminous wallop and mind-melting sonic radnasity, that’s what.
Jake Orrall explains: “We are doing the show half classic and half beefed up jam style. We’ve been playing just the two of us for 10+ years and frankly it’s starting to get boring, so fuck it, let’s mix it up. Who’s gonna stop us?”
In addition to its club tour, the band will perform at this year’s Coachella Festival, as well as the Mission Creek Festival in Iowa City and the Middle of the Map Festival in Kansas City, MO, in April.
Following non-stop touring that took them around the globe plus a couple highly-entertaining TV appearances, JEFF The Brotherhood return to the U.S. in support of their critically acclaimed album Hypnotic Nights, (co-produced with Dan Auerbach). As expected, just as each of their previous albums, “Nights” has earned the Orrall brothers, glowing accolades for their high-energy, minimalist-maximalist approach to songwriting, recording and live performances from. such outlets as Rolling Stone, Spin, The New York Times, USA Today, Pitchfork and countless others.
