Brother Boys

Tuesday, February 24th, 7:30 pm at Barter's Smith Theatre

For nearly 4 decades, Ed Snodderly and Eugene Wolf have been on the leading edge of homegrown Americana music as the Brother Boys. Their latest CD, On the Honky Tonk Highway with The Brother Boys: New Hillbilly Music from Germany’s Bear Family is a compilation of studio recordings from Sugar Hill Records, self-produced albums and live recordings from the WETS-FM radio show, Studio One and The Down Home in Johnson City. They’ve appeared on TNN’s American Music Shop, Ernest Tubb’s Record Shop’s Midnight Jamboree and were the first American artists to perform in the former Soviet satellite, Bashkortostan. They were winners of an International Bluegrass Music Award for Best Recorded Event for their appearance on the Jerry Douglas album, Slide Rule. People Magazine said they were “the scraggliest looking hombres ever to grace an album cover, but their music is as pretty as can be!”
