We like to experiment with different sounds and styles –our track Space Jam, on Spotify is what you might call “psychedelic, easy-listening rock”, but we’re also big fans of folk, rock and country music. We'll be doing a hybrid of originals and cover songs that we love from Simon & Garfunkel, The Bee Gees and the Beatles, All scrambled into 2 sets. See you at the gig.

Brothers Harvest are a mostly five piece band out of Bunurong Country. They’ve been playing across the state and putting out their own special blend of swampy Blues and Americana this past year or so. Think electric guitars, lapsteel, mandolin, harp, keys, bass and drums, all taking turns to dance together under a rising moon. Now you’re sorta getting the picture. If this sounds like your kind of gravy, you should come down and catch their next live show. The band would be more than pleased to have you along for the ride. Still not sure? Check out their recently released debut album, The True Vine, and you can decide for yourself.
