Por Federino Arballo Con guitarras cargadas, estribillos melódicos que te enganchan y un recurrente mensaje de hedonismo adolescente, la banda formada por los hermanos Orrall lanza un disco que logra un interesante equilibrio, donde conviven la saturación sonora del rock de garage y la armonía con determinación que propone el power pop. En esta mezcla, y con la ayuda de Dan Auerbach de The Black Keys detrás de las consolas, el dúo de Nashville parece encontrar un rumbo que le sienta bien y que da vida [...]

Visiting the parents is often a stressful time. Despite their incessantly busy schedules, they have actually learned to relax in retirement despite their hectic lifestyle. I visited them two weekends ago now. Hence the absence of an August 17 radio show recap; there was none. Instead, I participated in my brother's wedding. Having just one brother, this was a first. And I'm very excited to have a new sister. He and Diane dated five years before their engagement, just like Andi and myself. (Their engagement story, [...]

Name: JEFF The Brotherhood Progress Report: Jamin Orrall talks about Hypnotic Nights , major labels, and the tour that never ends. JEFF The Brotherhood - AKA the two-man party machine consisting of brothers Jake and Jamin Orrall - just released their seventh album ( Hypnotic Nights ) and embarked on what will basically be an endless tour of the world. Though the endless touring is nothing new for the Orrall brothers, who have basically built a career out of playing nonstop shows for the past decade, [...]

Hot on the heels of the July release of their seventh LP and major label debut Hypnotic Nights , darlings of the indie rockosphere JEFF The Brotherhood show no signs of slowing down, confirming recently that they will continue touring in support of that latest effort throughout the remainder of the summer and fall, including stops at San Francisco's Bottom of the Hill and San Jose's The Blank Club in October. After taking part in the European festival circuit in August, JEFF The Brotherhood's actual brother duo Jake and Jamin Orrall [...]

Wow this week is busy - there are even two awesome gigs happening on Sunday night, which is rather unusual. As it happens, I don't really know how many I am going to manage, all told. Maybe one or two. After last weekend's efforts I think laying off the drink a little may prove to be an eminently sensible decision for a little while. This means you can probably safely attend most of these gigs without running the risk of me being there and either getting drunk and calling you something offensive or, and this might actually be [...]

Photo Credit: Andrew St. Clair 21 years after its inception, Lollapalooza is a festival that does almost everything right. For quite a while now, it's been in a very convenient area and had excellent line-ups, even compared with competing fests such as Bonnaroo, Coachella, and Outside Lands. When done right, a great festival includes bands for everyone, and Lollapalooza does this to near perfection. Among the headliners: Jack White and Red Hot Chili Peppers , Justice , Kaskade , Bassnecter and Santigold (for the dance crowd), Black Sabbath (for the [...]

We've been playing JEFF The Brotherhood for a while, and even their individual members aren't necessarily strangers (they were involved at one time or another with Be Your Own Pet, who still turn up every now and again on our station) so it's nice to see them with a bit of a major label push and a big honkin' tour lined up. Here's the details of that tour, courtesy a shiny new press release we got in the Altrok 90.5 HD2 inbox. Looks like (outside of the Mumford & Sons -curated shindig, the Gentlemen Of [...]

Juiceboxxx is everything you want from an Infinity Cat (JEFF, The Brotherhood's label) release: talented musicians using their extraordinary skills to create some big, fun, dumb rock and roll.

If we're keeping a tally, and we aren't, Lollapalooza's Saturdays usually end up being the strongest of the weekend. In 2008, it was Rage Against The Machine . In 2009, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs filled in for The Beastie Boys when MCA was first diagnosed with cancer. In 2010, Phoenix played the biggest show of the band's career. And last year, it was front and center for My Morning Jacket . Predictably, 2012's Saturday stacked up as the strongest day of the weekend with the top-billed headliner [...]

Real-life siblings Jake and Jamin Orral have produced garage rock records under the Jeff the Brotherhood moniker since 2002. While all previous LPs were released under indie label Infinity Cat, Hypmotic Nights , their sixth full-length, finds the group partnered up with industry giants Warner Brothers. The transition hasn't effected the group's sound much. Most of the material here will be pleasantly familiar to anyone who enjoyed their well-received 2011 effort We Are the Champions. The recordings may sound a little cleaner, but fear not, the distorted riffs and propulsive snares made the trip to Warner's with [...]
