Described by Folk Radio UK as ‘weaving an especially compelling magic’, and ‘showing British acoustic music in its best possible light’, the music of Northumbrian duo The Brothers Gillespie is animated by lyrical songwriting, fine fingerstyle guitar playing, multi-instrumental musicianship and their beautiful sibling harmonies. Their music evokes the still wild soul of the British isles, finding the thread of love and belonging in a world that seems to be nonetheless unravelling.
“Anyone who has seen the brothers live will surely attest that it is an experience that will stay with you. There is a feeling of warmth that exudes from them and affects everyone in the room.”
— Nygel Packett, Folk London
“Not since the minimal chamber folk of Simon And Garfunkel has two voices and an acoustic guitar sounded so absolutely perfect.”
— Marc Higgins, FATEA review of ‘The Merciful Road’
