Bristol’s Stone Church Coffee House at the First Congregational Church welcomes The Meadow Brothers on Saturday, February 22.Ian and Dustin Meadows were born and raised in the Lower Connecticut River Valley and have been making music together for most of their lives. They blend a myriad of folk, blues, rock, and country influences into what The Boston Globe calls “an engagingly twangy sibling sound all their own. They share that essential brother-band DNA: a telepathic tightness, the ability to stop and start vocal phrases in lockstep, to fall effortlessly into close harmonies, trade off phrases and navigate together the fresh expression of American roots music they create.
Since taking the stage as “The Meadows Brothers” in 2012 while both were still in High School, Ian and Dustin have logged tens of thousands of road miles, written a pile of songs, recorded a few albums, met a lot of interesting people, and had a lot of fun every step of the way. Dustin says “There aren’t too many things that beat getting to travel around and play music with your brother. We do it because we absolutely love it. The fact that people connect with the songs just makes it better.” Keeping it simple, continuously improving their craft, and not taking themselves too seriously are major tenets of the brother’s code.
Their most recent album “Play It Right” (2023) features the brothers unique, outward-looking songwriting style, expressive vocals, and close harmonies as well as instrumentation from a host of excellent players notably Dave Spinozza (Paul McCartney, James Taylor, Dr. John), and Rich Hinman (KD Lang, Sara Bareilles, Vulfpeck). It was recorded and produced by Tracy Walton at On Deck Sound Studios in Northfield, CT. The brothers’ follow-up album “In the Land of Steady Habits” is due for release in the Winter of 2025.
