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!"

When you visit Cape Cod be sure to check out this band!
author: Wareham courier subsriberIt is a matter of time before this band tours the world! Todays musician's should listen very closely and pay attention! The brothers have a unique blend of harmony that both serious and experienced music lovers could possibly appreciate along with newcomers. It is obvious there is many years of hard work and dedication to their music and the committment is really starting to show.
Rock Fans Of All Ages, You Must Grab This!
author: Dave ClarkIf you're among the youth of the world or still think you are, you must hunt down and listen to Grab This! I'm a jaded geezer who's seen and heard the best of many musical styles over decades, and I've quietly ignored pretenders, some of whom have actually made it to the national charts. I'm a Simon-type, but I feel the need to be demanding, so I don't hand out high praise unless it's well-earned. The Grab Brothers are a rare discovery, and their latest, Grab This! absolutely knocks me on my can. The limited question I have with this CD is strictly due to personal taste, and to mention this much about it is probably unfair. If you like clean but hard-edge rock, the kind that raises the hair on the back of your neck, then you'll say--as I do--that this CD would rank among the best if done by a legendary national rock band... it's that... words fail me... amazing? This CD deserves to rip up the national charts, and I am not kidding. Kids and kids still at heart, you need a CD containing music from a band that not only packs our youth into clubs SRO, but a band that their parents are fighting each other for to hire for weddings! Can you name another act anywhere producing music with such appeal across the age spectrum? Listen to Grab This! and you'll hear why. You might think that nobody cuts appealing and creative rock songs you can remember the next day anymore, but you'll find a bunch-and I do mean bunch--of fresh ones on this CD. If you can't catch the Grab Brothers live, you need to wrap your ears around Grab This!
