Artist Spotlight: Little Brother Eli

Today's Artist Spotlight comes to us from a duo based out of Oxford, England called Little Brother Eli. The duo consists of Joshua Rigal and Alex Grew, and the band have a stripped down, organic, bare-bones blues/folk rock hybrid similar to the likes of The Black Keys and Phillip Phillips with an incredible vocal push that lures you in immediately from the get go and ensures that you'll stay for the duration of your musical stay. When I first came across these guys, I was enthralled with the duo's musicality and their approach to craft songs that have a down-home, folk rock feel that is prevalent and most notable with their musical contemporaries from their homeland such as Mumford & Sons, but they manage to put their own unique twist on it that immediately draws you in upon contact with them, and makes you fall in love with them right then and there and really makes you appreciate the talent that much more that is emanating from our friends over in England. A highly talented duo that is well worth your listening time and one to keep an eye on in the days and months ahead. Recommended songs for you to take a listen to from their catalogue include "Hanging" and "Awkward Positions".
