The Brook & The Bluff are returning with another excellent new song from their forthcoming album Bluebeard. An infectious drum beat drives the tune with low-key melodies, the harmonies are mellow and faultless.
The band’s Joseph Settine tells us “Hiding” is “about presenting a completely put together presentation of yourself on the surface, but inside of you everything feels like it has been put together wrong. Then you actually talk to someone else, and you realize that we’re all just out here trying to figure it out one day at a time.”
The song comes off the back of “Long Limbs” another masterclass in the fusion of indie-folk but with an ever so funky feel. Bluebeard already feels like a modern classic, shaped by the past but very much of and for right now.
The Brook & The Bluff have already made a name for themselves on the live circuit playing electric sets at Bonnaroo, Hangout, Firefly and Wonderfront. Having previously toured with Mt Joy, Noah Kahan, Rainbow Kitten Surprise amongst others, this September they will hit the road to headline their biggest rooms yet, all dates can be found below.

More on The Brook & The Bluff…..
For a moment, conjure an image of a band of five longtime pals, writing alluring new rock classics about the frailties of love and the ennui of existence, soft and familiar as a pair of old jeans. It may look something like The Brook & The Bluff, named for the members’ respective childhood neighborhoods in Birmingham, Alabama—two brothers and some neighbors, all childhood chums. Like their road-bound rock forebears, the band followed a proven path for the better part of a decade, growing from a college-town covers duo to a hard-touring quintet.
In recent years, The Brook & The Bluff’s incandescent harmonies, winning arrangements, and observational acumen have unexpectedly put them upon a different on-ramp for success: streaming stardom. They are now, by far, one of the most successful young bands at folk-rock’s amorphous contemporary edge, fusing the craft of the past with the ideas and avenues of the present. With a dozen songs that won’t let go, their forthcoming third album, Bluebeard, makes an unequivocal case as to why.
