MP3 brothersix - the live family album
11 MP3 Songs
ROCK: Funk Rock, ROCK: Classic Rock
Details:
Throughout rock history, siblings with a musical bent have teamed up to practice their craft, The Jackson Five, The Allman Brothers Band, Sly and the Family Stone, The Partridge faux-Family. Add the five Crucianelli brothers + friend to that list. As Brothersix, the band skirts the ''c''mon get happy'' mentality that plagues some groups intent on keeping it all in the family. Their 1997 debut,
''The Live Family Album'' demonstrates that the Crucianellis aren''t averse to having a little fun with the inevitable comparisons to the Brady Bunch, however. The self-produced disc opens with a deliberately schmaltzy intro. After the jokingly grandiose , ''We are Brothersix'' pronouncement in song, the siblings quickly get serious. Funky guitars, echoing keyboards and Stevie Wonder-esque vocals harken back to the fusion of Motown and rock. The band updates blue-eyed soul with a tight, modern pop sensibility.
Few bands attempt a live album for a debut, but the ploy workrd for Brothersix. Infusing their songs about love found and lost with intensity and energy.
