The Brummies

Independent artists, The Brummies, made up of vocalists and multi-instrumentalists John Davidson and Jacob Bryant, and drummer Trevor Davis, have been playing together in various incarnations since high school, growing up together outside of Birmingham, AL. The members count the Beatles, Elton John, ELO, Blitzen Trapper, and My Morning Jacket among their influences, but also have an affinity for sweeping film soundtracks. Their trademark sound evokes the psych-rock vibe of the '60s and the soft indie-folk of the '90s, yet possesses a timeless quality all its own.

The band has toured domestically and internationally playing with St. Paul & the Broken Bones, Kacey Musgraves, the Wild Feathers, NEEDTOBREATHE, and BANNERS among others. They have played festivals such as Governors Ball, Austin City Limits Fest, Electric Picnic, Bonnaroo, Sloss, MOTM, and Hangout and to date have logged over 30 million streams organically as independent artists.

The Brummies' debut album, Eternal Reach, was recorded at Battle Tapes Recording in Nashville with Grammy award-winning engineer Jeremy Ferguson (Cage The Elephant) and co-producer David Hopkins. The album which Billboard magazine states as “gorgeous,” “lush,” and “…an album to be listened to from start to finish,” includes single “Drive Away” featuring Grammy-winner Kacey Musgraves.

The Brummies' sophomore album, Automatic World, was also recorded at Battle Tapes with Jeremy Ferguson engineering and Austin Jenkins (Leone Bridges, Khruangbin, Orville Peck) co-producing alongside Jarrad K (Ruston Kelly, ELOHIM) and finished at the Chateau Noire. There are rhythmic guitar riffs straight out of the '70s, hypnotic Moog passages that evoke the electronica of Giorgio Moroder, & even the bright tones of soul music. It exists in those atmospheric notes that soundtrack our subconscious. Automatic World was released on November 13, 2020.

The Brummies are currently in the studio and will be releasing new music in 2022 for the highly anticipated third album that will be a new sonic landscape.
