<strong>…”The Family are three long-time mates, writing music with hearts on their sleeve”…<strong> First crossing paths in '06, they were in other bands and had mutual friends. But those years became the perfect chance to soak up each other's musicality and cement a connection. Many moons later, a wedding gig fell in their lap. Reuben and James rose to the challenge Mel had set and the trio from Brisbane AU became The Family. But they soon found they had more to say. Songwriters individually, they introduced songs to each other, tinkering away until the right ones stuck. What evolved is an eclectic mix that represents each artist, gently held and lifted by the others. Their songs about heartbreak, life observations and small joys, swing between Folk, Indie, Pop, Rock, Blues, Alt-Country and Reggae. Long story short, the trio are a varied, rootsy, soulful sound. And why the hell not? Life’s too short not to smash out cracking music between day jobs and ridiculous internet memes.
