Product Description

Kevin Devine, known as one of the most prolific singer-songwriters in the indie-rock community, has always placed premium importance on the messages his songs relay. As his most recent work, the Bulldozer and Bubblegum LPs, show, Devines lyricism often ranges from intensely, intimatelypersonal to very outwardly political. Devines Billboard 200-charting 2009 LP, Brothers Blood, is another prime example of his versatility and boundless creativity. Originally released via Favorite Gentlemen Recordings, the record label run by indie-rock act Manchester Orchestra, Brothers Blood is now getting the deluxe reissue treatment via Favorite Gentlemen and Bad Timing Records. The record is Devines best-selling full-length to date. Part of a new partnership between Bad Timing, Favorite Gentlemen and Devine, the Brothers Blood reissue comes in the form of a double LP record housed in a gatefold jacket with die-cut packaging. The D side of the release contains songs from Devines I Could Be With Anyone EP. This early-2015 release kicks off what will be a busy year for Devinefans can expect plenty of new material from the Brooklyn-based songwriter as well as more revisitations to his past work throughout the year. In addition, Devine has already announced two full U.S. tours for the winter and spring of 2015, where he will play Brothers Blood material sprinkled in with heavy doses of Bulldozer, Bubblegum and other career-spanning songs.
