BROTHERLY/MY SONGS
Brotherly is a band that I run with Robin Mullarkey. We have released two albums, several singles and remixes. The critically acclaimed One Sweet Life, in 2005 and the sophisticated Find First Light in 2010, have been influential and loved the world over.

'System' has been played and covered by countless musicians and is our biggest hit to date. It has been arranged for choirs, pulled apart by drummers, added to University curriculum and puzzled over by lyricists and musicians for years. Watch Rob break down 'System' here.
On Dec 4th 2020 Whirlwind Recordings plan to release 'Analects', a 'Best Of' album which includes 'The Code' a previously unreleased track, and adding very special guests Kaidi Tatham, Donny McCaslin and Jason Rebello.

Rob separated all the stems of 'System' so you can add your instrument. The best tracks got put together and a new version of 'System' was made! Special guests include Jacob Collier. Click here.....
I wrote 'Rivers' from my first home studio in North London with Mark de Clive Lowe and Rima. The album was an early example of the broken beat movement
Thank you to all the amazing Brolievers who have covered our songs and helped to keep the music alive and thriving.
Dave de Rose and I had lots of fun with this one!
Special mention to the immensely talented Taylor Gordon, for starting a Brovolution.
