The Milk Parlor presents Travers Brothership in concert on Friday, January 24, 2020. Travers Brothership is the brainchild of twin brothers Eric and Kyle Travers. The Travers Brothers acknowledged a shared love for music early on, and began learning how to play music at age seven. Assisted by their Father and musician, Robert Travers, the Brothers began performing live at age twelve in and around their hometown, Asheville N.C. Beginning to play music together at such a young age evoked an eclectic musical taste in the brothers, inspiring them to become the multi-instrumentalists they are today. “The dynamic of the twin brothers is obviously in the blood. Their vocals blend perfectly and the songwriting they create together is divine.” –Jade Rudolph, KZKO Radio (Denver, CO) In 2007 the Travers Brothers formed an Alternative Rock, Funk, and Blues quartet, Travers Brothers Band, with multi instrumentalists Ian McIsaac and Joshua Clark. Featuring a diverse writing style and an intriguing live performance, the band flourished in the Southeast region of the United States, and released a self-titled album of original songs in 2011. In the fall of 2012, the members of TBB agreed they desired a broader sound and began seeking musicians to fulfill this vision. After much consideration, trombonist Kyle Snuffer, trumpeter Alex Bradley, and saxophonists Dean Mitchell and Jamie Berlyn were added to ranks. With the newly evolved lineup, the band was ready to begin anew with a different approach. Reinventing musical performance was a desire rooted firmly in their souls. The band wanted to create a unique sound that reflected upon influences such as Tedeschi Trucks Band, Galactic, The Black Keys, The Allman Brothers Band, P-Funk, CSNY, Modest Mouse, Umphrey’s McGee, and B.B. King.
