The Sensational Barnes Brothers

The Sensational Barnes Brothers are a melting pot of the old and the new. As PopMatters states, “The brothers run through a spectrum of moods and modes in their gospel soul, often bridging the gap between, say, the Soul Stirrers and Stax, all the while keeping a local flavor.” The brothers are able to dive deep into their roots, creating a sound that reflects the music of their history, all the while drawing in a modern-day audience.
TSBB are featured on vocalist Don Bryant’s Grammy nominated album Don't Give Up on Love, have recorded with lead singer of The Black Keys, Dan Auerbach, and you can hear them on Latin Grammy nominated band Making Movies latest release XOPA.
The duo recorded their first album under the Bible and Tire Recording Co./Fat Possum. Inspired by their shared past, fueled by harmonies that resonate with both their blood and their kindred souls, TSBB see themselves singing, playing, and dancing for a long time to come.
