I've been around to sing about these bitter old ways I've seen men crumble down to ashes and enslaved The writing on the wall, but the message is on the page All I think about is how you got this way Come down a second I got something to tell It’s about how you been walking over me Got a change of heart And a change of place I really appreciate if you leave this place Be out before the morning, before the break of dawn Leave no trace but leave your spawn It’s no wonder where we went wrong , track marks on your face and I'm gone It comes and it goes Just like the wind blows We can only hope to trust in what we know But the holes in our clothes, just like the ones in our souls Leak out all we have to gain. It’s six in the morning been hitting the bottle hard Got no cash or credit card Are you holding the keys to my car obviously I can't go far Found but no forgotten one way through this maze The ace of hearts are the queen of spades Bound for glory or the depth of despair Can’t go no where if you don't care

No Good 03:39
Been through the dessert waiting for the snow Been through the blizzard and I'm ready to go Down to crystal town That’s where I lay my crown And the stars they light my way ‘Cause a no good can't travel in the day Busting out of prison and the sheriffs on my tail for crimes that were committed while I was in jail and I'm fueling up in Tucson, all by my lonesome ‘Cause when your a no good on the run you can't trust no one And it’s hard being a no good They don't want you down in Minglewood And the stars they light my way ‘Cause a no good can't travel in the day

Cruisin' 04:25
Sailin' round across the sea Is such a wonderful place to be When you’re cruisin' (cruisin') Smiles all around are free This really is the place to be here, Cruisin' (cruisin') Artists hang with you and me This really is the place to be here, Cruisin' (cruisin') Every time you turn around The sun comes up and you get down you're, Cruisin' (cruisin') Music (music, music) fills the air Laughter (laughter, laugher) every where People danicin', people singin' Groovin' across the sea Nothing matters; let the good times roll for you and me The sun goes down, the moon comes up And we all haven't had enough ‘Cause we're, cruisin' (cruisin') Drinks are flowing all around And the spunions all checked out of town They're cruisin' (cruisin') The shows they happen everywhere And each one is beyond compare ‘Cause you're, cruisin' (cruisin') And every time you turn around The sun comes up and you get down You're, Cruisin' (Cruisin') Shining lights across the sea Hangin' with my jamily And we're groovin' across the sea Yea we're groovin' across the sea

On My Way 05:04
I’ve been away so long Going back where I started from The seed has spawned The healing has begun Go back where I belong Didn't mean to hurt no one Heading towards, the sun Yes I, am on my way Caught in a spiral trap And I couldn't make my way back Hope I don't relapse What I worked for just collapse Oh this life it moves so fast Just want to see it last Put my troubles in the past Yes I, am on my way To the great divide Get that twinkle back in my eyes And thought my will and my pride Yes I, am on my way And for several long years I’ve been living in fear My mind as been away In a prison that I made But these wall are starting to fade Seeing the light of day Starts mold me like clay Yes I, am on my way Who would have thought That I would get this lost And lose at such a cost Just following the moss Be mine own boss Can't be acting ridiculous Oh the corner we cross But I, am on my way To the great divide Get that twinkle back in my eyes And thought my will and my pride Yes I, am on my way

Little bit wiser and little bit jaded Coming down, never felt so faded Hands on hands, minds on minds Take it down slow, have a real good time As I look back on these 28 years I think of all the times I'm left drowning in my tears What doesn't kill me, just makes me stronger I still going and walking a little harder Take a step back and a good look at yourself Are you doing what you want or let life sit on the shelf Can only hold on for so long, until it crumbles down and your left in the wrong Well bye and bye we all got to die So close your eyes and reach for the sky And never never, never never, never asking why Why it’s just a bunch of hellos and goodbyes Oh angels hold you up by their wings While I'm left standing alone with nothing There’s a time and a place, but I ain't got no time for that There’s a will and way, but you don't know jack

Why don't you call me on the phone to tell me you don't love me? Why don't you get me on the line to tell me I won't do? You won't say it to my face 'cause you know it will be ugly, But pickin' up my phone just ain't somethin' I will do. So won't you cry, cry, cry your cell phone blues, 'Cause I got caller ID and I know that it's you. An’ won't you cry, cry, cry in your text message too, 'Cause I turned my ringer off and I won't answer you. Well, you know where I work and when I go eat lunch, But you won't come to see me 'cause that would be too much. And you can look me up online, there ain't nothin' you can't see, But you can't bare to look me down when you say no to me. Well I hope you hear this song when you're browsin' on your phone, When you're out with your friends and when you're all alone. But we both know it don't make a difference which one turns out true, 'Cause starin' at your God damned phone's the only thing you do. And won't you call me on the phone to tell me you don't love me? Why don't you get me on the line to tell me I won't do? You won't say it to my face 'cause you know it will be ugly, But pickin' up my phone just ain't somethin' I will do. So won't you cry, cry, cry your cell phone blues, 'Cause I got caller ID and I know that it's you. An won't you cry, cry, cry in your text message too, 'Cause I turned my ringer off, Yes, I turned my ringer off, Oh I turned my cell phone off, and I won't answer you.

Sixty miles to Boston and the weather is just fine Divided sky, white clouds up high, the sun is shining bright History all around us, founding fathers in the air Relaxing up in Sturbridge without a worry or a care Everywhere you look around there's magic in the air Sheep grazing in the meadow, a cool breeze blows through my hair Sippin' my coffee and the birds all flying by We're sixty miles from Boston, oh how the time does fly We've come so far On this journey through time We've seen so many places, And lots of friendly faces down the line We're on the road Where it goes, we don't know But we've got the desire, it’s burning like a fire In our souls Sixty miles from Boston and the sun is shining bright The road is long, the air is clear, the miles keep flying by I smoke another cigarette and think of days gone by As we write another page, in the story of our life How far this road will take us, none of us can know But we're looking forward to finding out As the music grows, each new song will tell a story And the melodies will flow Like a river down to Boston, Only 60 Miles to go

Oh yea I’m headin’ to Virginia to sing away them Blue Ridge blues Headin’ to Virginia you know I got nothing to lose Headin’ to Virginia to sing away them Blue Ridge blues Headin’ to Virginia kicking off them fancy city shoes Walking down the street, fresh fall air goes through my mind Playing to the beat and I see the colors change and mountains rise I’m headed out the door and you know I’ve got that Blue Ridge Mountain high Oh yes it’s Virginia, now all I need is some ‘shine I see the hills and valleys; I remember when we first met I was a younger man, my eyes wide, adventure my quest Driving Blue Ridge highway didn’t know what came around the bend But for all I care, this road, it could never end Yea I hear the whistle blowing, see the train a comin’ down the track I look at her and she looks at me and we both know I ain’t ever comin’ back Virginia is calling. rivers, mountains, bright blue skies I love you baby, but Virginia’s never left my mind

Weed, whiskey, women We love drinking, smoking, and flirting Weed, whiskey, women Well there’s nothing like being horny, drunk, stoned, and laughing Light it up Drink it up And buy her a fancy rose No telling when you die So let that freak flag show Rye on the rock, shipment on the docks Don't come into bed with those dirty socks High on the ox, running from the cops, once you start it’s hard to stop Chorus When you wake up with yesterday’s make up still on your face Eyes half open you see me packing my alligator case You say ‘hey baby where you going we just met’ Said I got three loves no room for more my mind is set

about

“On Our Way” is The Brummy Brothers’ debut full-length album, produced by Tim Carbone of Railroad Earth. Over the past two years The Brummy Brothers have toured the Northeast region for bluegrass loving fans that love to “Shake Their Brum”.

The album allows the band to share the composite of their songs written in their time together and represents the bands high energy, modern bluegrass feel. The record incorporates harmonizing voices, fantastic instrumentation, and great solos including guest solos on Trumpet as well as Piano, bringing a whole new dynamic to their newgrass style.

After the Brummy Brothers’ most recent show at the Brooklyn Bowl with Cornmeal in March, Live for Live music wrote. “With veteran jamgrass stalwarts like Yonder Mountain, Cornmeal and Railroad Earth well into their second decade of performing, it is rewarding to witness a fresh batch of sounds from a multi-talented band clearly adept at successfully taking the reins of the genre into the bright future” (L4LM article).

Railroad Earth’s Carbone was insistent that “On Our Way” be created with the highest standards in order to put his name on this project. Once Carbone heard our initial tracks before accepting us a client, he likened us to the Greensky Bluegrass in their early years. Carbone put The Brummy Brothers through two days of pre-production, which he refers to as “boot camp”. Greensky went through the same “boot camp”, when they worked with Carbone on their first two albums.

Following their Valentine’s Day show with Yarn at the Red Square, Albany, UpstateLive wrote, “Over the course of two years, The Brummy’s have toured the Northeast incessantly, getting their music out and forging a reputation. They recently went behind the scenes and recorded their first album, aptly titled On Our Way. After witnessing their stage prowess in Albany, they are very clearly “on [their] way,” if not already there. Evidenced by their work with fiddler and producer, Timothy Carbone, The Brummy’s proclaimed the recording was a ‘musical boot camp!’” (UpstateLive article)

Regarding their performance at John Harvard’s Brewery, The Boston Music Examiner wrote, "The recognizable beginnings then developed into breakneck jam grass that highlighted the instrumental proficiency of all four members...The band’s constituency continues to grow as they spread their talent around the Northeast" (Boston Music Examiner article).

The album release will be on May 13, and their tour to support the release of the album on will begin on May 15 (Dates are announced here). The Brummy Brothers shared the stage with Cornmeal and Poor Man’s Whiskey at The Brooklyn Bowl and performed with Floodwood & Cabinet at one of the Blockley’s last shows before it’s close. Now they're about to perform on the main stage at the Toyota Pavilion’s Susquehanna Breakdown with Cabinet, Sister Sparrow & The Dirty Birds, Marco Benevento, Floodwood, Driftwood and many more acts.

They played over 13 music festivals last summer in their first summer touring, including StrangeCreek Music Festival, and Catskill Chill. This album was made not only for current fans, but to draw in new listeners from all different types of musical backgrounds.

After performing at StrangeCreek Music Festival last summer, Jambase.com wrote “The ‘Artist-At-Large’ is the one with no set performing times or location but rather a roaming commission. One can’t imagine a more ideal band suited for this task than the Brummy Brothers. Having only played together for a year, the energy is fresh and they converted many new fans who danced to their grooves regardless of the location or time they performed.” (Jambase article)

Sensible reason also published this after The Brummy Brothers’ second performance at the Catskill Chill in 2013, "Over at the Junction, the Brummy Brothers put on a hootenanny punctuated by the infectious refrain of ‘There’s nothing like being horny, drunk, stoned and laughing!’” (Sensible Reason Article)
