Bio:

From the heart of Texas, the BURDEN BROTHERS are a big sounding, hard-hitting band that are a rare independent breed making impact on the radio and on the road. This five-piece band has come a long way from being an Internet-only project, now having a groundswell building with its debut full-length album, Buried In Your Black Heart, into a full-fledged whirlwind of epic proportions. We put the pressure on ourselves to make music that is fun and interesting for us as musicians, says the intense, lanky singer, Vaden Todd Lewis. This band is a blast. Formed by the ex-Toadies vocalist and acclaimed drummer Taz Bentley (Reverend Horton Heat, Tenderloin, Izzy Stradlin) the band was not thinking big when they first started. Initially we were interested in keeping a fairly low profile online and a show here and there, says Lewis. We wanted to put music out over the Internet for our fans to find. We came up with the idea to sell Packages instead of just music, Bentley explains. The packages would always include a CD, a T-shirt and other items such as coasters, shot glass and stickers. This gave us the freedom to create music for the sake of creating music. The purest music I've ever written for sure!
