The Riotous Brothers’ songs and influences are shaped by the blues. From its roots in America it branched out with the British boom and it keeps on growing. We’re part of the new growth, pushing outward and upward from what has gone before. 'A repertoire stretching the limits of blues and R&B, songs from their own book have a familiar feel to them, as if they are the standards of tomorrow. The band had a great rapport with the audience - a fun evening.' Blues In Britain magazine 'The Riotous Brothers is a confident, adventurous band, full of well-crafted songs that stretch into excellent blues-rock, muscular funk and good time boogie with real emotion and feel. Central to the band's energetic drive is Mash Sonnet, passionately belting out his vocal parts and with a wide range of tone colours to his guitar. Paul Long contributes emotive vocals, organ and electric piano. Mat Lake provides the subtle, undulating bass work and the band's natural exuberance is reined in and eloquently shaped by drummer Dirk Maggs. It's rare for a blues-based band to come up with something as original and different - full of creativity, integrity and real spark.' www.readytorock.com 'So memorable were some of the songs that I had to do a double take, as I was convinced they were covers, but all the material on the album is self-written. A faultless recording...high energy material...destined to cause a riot!' Blues Matters magazine These reviews in full on the PRESS page... |
