The Bros. Landreth are two-time JUNO Award winners from Winnipeg, known for their blend of guitar-driven, soulful, blood harmony roots music. The band, the core of which consists of brothers Dave and Joey Landreth, has earned critical acclaim and a dedicated audience for their heartfelt songs, inventive musicianship, and powerful performances. From their early days attending their father’s gigs as babies (“Mom would tuck us into a bassinet and slide us under the bar tables,” says Dave), the brothers have spent a lifetime touring rock clubs, theatres, and music festivals across North America, the UK, Europe, and Australia, including stand-out performances at Byron Bay Blues Festival in Australia and Eric Clapton’s Crossroads Guitar Festival in Los Angeles.

In 2023, a banner year for the band, Joey and Dave became Grammy-winning songwriters when Bonnie Raitt’s cover of their song, Made Up Mind (from their first album, Let it Lie), earned the Grammy for Americana Performance of the Year. The recognition was a fitting nod from one of their musical heroes, as their own music draws inspiration from the well-worn records of their childhood — Bonnie Raitt’s blues, Little Feat’s funky country-rock, Ry Cooder’s eclectic instrumentals, Lyle Lovett’s twangy traditionalism — culminating in a sound that salutes the past while planting its flag firmly in the present.

Drawing on the energy of their recent live shows and a newfound sense of creative purpose, The Bros. Landreth returned to the studio for their fourth full-length album, Dog Ear. This record captures the spontaneous and collaborative spirit of their touring band, which includes drummer Roman Clarke and producer Murray Pulver, and marks a new, more effortless approach to songwriting. The band ultimately hopes, “Maybe something on this record will get stuck in your head, or take root in your heart… Maybe, just maybe it’ll work its way into some little useful corner of your life, in the way that songs sometimes can do.”
