Bio

The Grab Brothers Band hails from the musical hotbed of Boston/Cape Cod. Original Duo and now featured as a "Power Trio" (Acoustic & Rock). A powerful 3-piece rock and roll outfit with an equally potent penchant for hook-laden rockers, and riveting excitement to their most infectious ballads. There is a vital chemistry at the core of their gutsy musical style. It encompasses an intriguing blend of an early Genesis infused with a Jethro Tullish Celtic taste and a bit of The Grateful Dead influence. Just catchy straight out rock-n-roll! "These guys not only have the ability to give you hard driving no-nonsense rock, but also can slow the pace to eloquently strum a few acoustic gems! And when the brothers sing together, their vocal harmonies are just amazing!"

    This is a wonderful album from The Grab Brothers Band. It's quite a departure from their previous releases. I've purchased Grab This and Grab It. The CD works as a whole and each song, while some not as strong as others, stand on their own, but not quite. Some memorable cuts include Something About You, Beat Me Down, Finer Than Diamonds, and the title track, Everybody Wants. Great guitar work all around, and the bass, drum and keyboard work is nothing short of flawless. It appears that the line-up featured on the disc is not the same one currently displayed on the band's web site. I question some of the quirky songs contained in the release as they seem to reduce the intensity of the entire listen leading one to question the compositional validity and sanity of the song choices. Perhaps next time around, The Grab Brothers may release an entire disc of potent material ala Something About You and the closing cut, Silent Dreams. All in all, an interesting listen.

  • awesome! just f#@kin' awesome !!!
