Brothers on the Run

Keeping the funk alive !

About Me

Official website - Chants


Brothers on the Run is a Soul/Funk/Reggae collective of 8 youngsters trying to revive a seemingly forgotten sound.
It all started in May 2005 when Mista M.A.L.L.E. and Skinny T. both progressive Soul/Funk musicians wanted to take their passion for music to the next level. Their dream was to form a band that would bring back the roots and infuse it with modern influences.

They started pulling some strings in K-town. Making phone calls, spreading the word, checking out possible band members Until one fine day in May 2005 they had filled their ragbag with musicians and started jamming. The first sessions had a heavy Rock-oriented undertow since several of the members of the newly formed collective had their roots in Rock music. But as time went by the Funk got into their blood and mixed with their previous experience their sound started taking on its current shape. Kinky flowing Soul/Funk flavoured by each artists individual touch.

As their lovechild took its shape so did its name. First known by the name of Skinny Timmy's Revolutionary Soulband, later by The Ultradictional Funky Junkies and eventually as Brothers on the Run (at least until some female members join the band).

The main mission of the band is making music for the people. They feed off the energy of the audience. Because the music is created for the audience and in turn the audience creates the music. When the crowd goes wild the band goes wild. Brothers on the Run gets on stage with one goal in mind: making people move, join in the groove and have a great time together.

Brothers on the Run are guaranteed pleasure all night long!!

The Soul n Funk revolution starts right here right now. So keep an eye out for more from this band!
