UK band Little Brother Eli released their new three song Singles EP last week. Out of the gate, you're drawn in. "Who Do You" is a funky little rock number that will have you up shaking your booty and hitting repeat. If you crave raw, blues & soul infused rock, you'll get it with this EP. The only downside, three songs isn't enough! Check out the stream below and own a copy of it HERE.
UK band Little Brother Eli have released a sneak preview of new material they've been working on. They've successfully teased me into wanting more. Hopefully, that will be soon. Check out this acapella mix of "Who Do You".
About a week or so ago, the folks at SoundYouCanSee released a live video of UK based band Little Brother Eli. The clip is of the song "A Thousand Wars." Check it out below.
Also, check out the Flatpack Jesus remix of their track "Awkward Positions". The studio version is on their EP, Little Brother Eli, that was released in May 2013.
Earlier this year, some fellas from the UK caught my ear. I took an instant liking to their sound which is a warm mix of blues, soul and rock. They are, Little Brother Eli.
The band has been working on an EP that we'll be able to hear on April 25. Naturally, I wanted to know more about the band so, I sent some questions over and Josh Rigal from the band sent over some answers. This is the result of our ‘e-chat’.
Quirky NY Chick (QNYC): Tell us a little about yourself. How did the band come together?
Josh Rigal (JR): Me and Alex (Grew), other than being best friends, had played together for years in our old band before it broke up in 2010. We met up in April of 2012, we were just hanging out, playing bits of music and ended up writing a song called Mary. From then it just took off for us, more and more songs just started flowing organically.
After we had written all this material we decided to get a band together - consisting of the talented Linus Taylor and Adam Stowe on guitars and Benji Page on drums (with myself on bass and Alex on vocals).
A couple of weeks ago, we were introduced to UK band Little Brother Eli. We like them and we're looking forward to a recorded effort from them hopefully sooner rather than later. This week, they've released a new video. The clip is for the song "Hanging". Check it out below.

Today we have for you a new band out of the UK. Joshua Rigal and Alex Grew, collectively known as Little Brother Eli. They've been working on a project for the last six months or so and the results, we will hear on an upcoming EP.
To whet your appetite, check out the video for "Awkward Positions" below. It's a live acoustic number. Grew has a warm soulfulness to his voice that really lends itself to this type of performance. After hearing this song, I'm looking forward to hearing more of their work. Check out the clip below and keep an ear out for more from these guys.
