With a sound reminiscent of the Supersuckers, the Hellacopters, Zeke, and Danko Jones, the Brotherhood of Lost Souls specializes in songs about broken hearts, broken dreams, and broken glass.

The band propels songs of social justice, mysterious love, and ancient chains.
- Rubber Tyre Peep Show
- Country-blues, funk, soul, and good old rock ’n’ roll. Through an ever-growing roster of collaborating musicians both on stage, and in studio, “the Peep Show” infuses each performance with Jam-Band dynamics and fresh interpretations of both original compositions and beloved classics, they work hard to ensure that you’ll never see the same show twice!
