The Peterson Brothers combine infectious energy and modern grooves with jazz, funk, blues & soul to create their own unique sound. For over a decade, the Texas natives have been building a fan base across America, playing both classic funk and soul, and their original music that includes jamband style improvisation by Glenn Jr. on vocals and guitar, and Alex on bass and vocals.
The brothers’ love for classic Funk, Soul, and Blues music was born when their mother and grandmother brought home a crate of assorted albums from a garage sale. The young men immersed themselves in such artists as The Isley Brothers, Earth, Wind and Fire, the Brothers Johnson, and B.B. King, crafting an infectious sound all their own.
Some of their first consistent gigs included regular performances at Antone’s, The Saxon Pub and other renowned venues in Austin. The duo have since traveled the U.S. performing in front of crowds at Chicago Blues Festival, ACL Music Festival, Minnesota State Fair, Texas State Fair, Riverbend Festival, Eric Clapton’s Crossroads Guitar Festival, The Pilgrimage Music Festival and many others.
They’ve opened for legendary artists such as Gary Clark Jr., “The Roots,” Jimmy Fallon’s band, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Jesse Johnson, of “The Time,” Willie Nelson, B.B. King, the “New Power Generation,” Prince’s longtime band, Robert Randolph, Buddy Guy and others.
