We're extremely excited to be able to announce the signing of American duo <a title="Brother Earth" href="http://www.hiddenshoal.com/project/brother-earth/">Brother Earth</a>. The band will release the amazing full length <em>Positive Haywires on </em>16th September preceded by two singles, the first of which drops next week (30th July)!  <em>Positive Haywires </em>vacillates between brooding textural pieces and exuberant rock’n’roll at the drop of a hat, chasing the ghosts of pop music past into a hall of cracked mirrors. It's an amazing album and we can't wait for you all to hear it.

Brother Earth is a collaboration between multi-instrumentalist/producer <a title="Todd Tobias" href="http://www.hiddenshoal.com/project/todd-tobias/">Todd Tobias</a> and vocalist Steve Five. Todd’s darkly exotic instrumental music has featured on three Hidden Shoal releases to date (<i>Medicine Show</i>, <i>Night Above Ground </i>and <i>I Razor</i>). Todd is also a member of Circus Devils alongside brother Tim Tobias and vocalist Robert Pollard (Guided by Voices). Steve Five is the guitarist/vocalist/songwriter for the Brooklyn-based band The Library is on Fire<i>.</i>
