Mom+Pop Music recording artist, beloved musicians, songwriters, and poets, The Brudi Brothers, today announce a fall tour including headlining shows and cities in support of Wyatt Flores and 49 Winchester and release a live cover of one of the most mysterious folk songs ever written, “House of the Rising Sun”.
Originally a traditional folk ballad dating back to the 19th century, “House of the Rising Sun” has been recorded in many forms — from early Appalachian versions in the 1930s, to Bob Dylan’s acoustic interpretation, to The Animals’ 1964 arrangement that reached audiences worldwide. The Brudi Brothers’ version draws on this history while adding their own interpretation.
When introducing the song on tour, the Brudi’s give respect and honor to the song: ”So Lead Belly recorded this one with his wife, He’s our favorite and then Dave Van Ronk copied the song…then Bob Dylan copied him…and Bob Dylan got copied by…The Animals and so he couldn’t do it after that so it’s been stolen so we’re stealing it now.”
“This song has always resonated with us—it’s one of those pieces that carries the weight of history and heartache,” said Johannes, “It is a song full of mystery but also so accessible. We recorded it live in Denver, Colorado, honoring the song’s legacy while making it our own.”
The Brudi Brothers fall multi-city tour starts in their hometown of Seattle on September 3, opening for Wyatt Flores and then hitting many US cities including Sacramento, Chicago, Atlanta, Austin and New Orleans, among many others. They are hosting a fanclub presale on Tuesday morning using the code MOTHERLAND with the general onsale happening on Friday, 8/22.
The Brudi Brothers signed with Mom+Pop, and their viral song, “Me More Cowboy Than You,” a quirky and cheeky track, amassed colossal attention with sudden virality across social platforms, including TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Music, with over 1.4 billion views and 60 million streams. On “Me More Cowboy Than You,” the irreverent lyrics poked fun at the “cowboy craze” that is sweeping pop culture, a sentiment that resonates with many including this verse: “The boys and girls are acting real strange, pretending they’re welders and cowboys and such, buying old work gear from the exchange, but you can tell their hands don’t do very much, Saying me me me me me more cowboy than you!”
The Brudi Brothers have amassed loyal fans who come to see them play live throughout the Pacific Northwest and California. The Brudi Brothers finished their summer tour opening for Grammy Award-winning roots artist, Sierra Ferrell.
