Exciting newcomers, Broken Witt Rebels, will release their new 5-track EP GEORGIA PINE this April. THE NEW 5-TRACK EP RELEASED APRIL 2016. The British blues-rock and soul band from Birmingham have been making a name for themselves after impressive live performances throughout 2015.
2015 saw Danny Core (vocals, guitar), Luke Davis (vocals, bass guitar), James Dudley (drums) and James Tranter (vocals, lead guitar) play at the Camden Rocks Festival in London, as well as two Time Out London concerts including The Time Out Best of Rising Stars 2015 at London’s sold out Jazz Café.
GEORGIA PINE, with its bluesy, rootsy, rock blend, looks set to become huge. The band’s sound can be likened to acts like Alabama Shakes and Black Keys. Broken Witt Rebels bring the sounds of old blues and Stax guitarists, whilst adding a modern authenticity into the mix too.
GEORGIA PINE was engineered and produced by Tom Gittins, who has also worked on recent recordings by Robert Plant (Led Zeppelin). Gittins has described the Rebels’ lead singer, Danny Core, as an amazing vocal talent in the tradition of Steve Marriot and Joe Cocker.
The band have announced dates for their GEORGIA PINE tour, as well as in support of country star, Brantley Gilbert.
