A Blood Connection
The band of brothers just released its fourth album, Crimes, and will slowly cross the nation with dates lasting through November.
These guys don’t shy away from an aggressive stage presence. Singers Jordan Blilie and Johnny Whitney scream along with the post-punk, angst-ridden music provided by guitarist Cody Votolato, bassist/keyboardist Morgan Henderson and drummer Mark Gajadhar.
The five-piece formed amidst a budding punk community in Seattle while the guys were still trying to find dates for their high school prom. Now The Blood Brothers have found their touring niche after earning opening slots on a number of big tours.
Past road trips have taken them on the road with A.F.I, The Used, Glassjaw, Cursive, Pretty Girls Make Graves and others. Earlier this year, the disorderly bunch sold-out several headlining gigs, including the Bluebird Theater in Denver, the Ottobar in Baltimore and the Troubadour in Los Angeles.
