Nashville rock duo JEFF the Brotherhood certainly has a classic rock feel to them. They recently released their 10th studio album, Zone, via Dine Alone Records. The band is touring in support of the album, and they will visit the Black Cat in DC on Monday, Sept. 26.
JEFF the Brotherhood is made up of brothers Jake and Jamin Orrall. The group formed in 2002 while they were in high school, and they have released various singles and collaborations in addition to 10 studio albums and one live album.
Considering how much music these guys have published, it’s somewhat of a surprise that they aren’t more well-known! These psychedelic rockers/noise poppers aren’t afraid to get down in the dirt with some garage rock. Believe it or not, they also occasionally remind me a bit of Black Sabbath.
Check out one of the songs from their 2015 album “Wasted on the Dream” below.

Songs from the new album are heavy on distortion and reverb, yet very much mindful of melodic hooks. JEFF the Brotherhood call the album the third installment in a “spiritual trilogy of albums,” including Heavy Days (2009) and We Are the Champions (2011).
In my opinion, $15 is a bargain to see the guys play, and so this should be a great show. I hope to see you there!
