With the exception of the Gallaghers, there have been many bands throughout the years that have proved that siblings make the best bandmates. This theory is reinforced by JEFF The Brotherhood, a group formed by the literal brotherhood of Jake and Jamin Orrall. Producing their own albums through their family-owned record label, Infinity Cat Recordings, the Nashville duo’s DIY attitude adds just the right amount of natural grit to its latest album, We Are The Champions. Plus, the band will play literally anytime and anywhere, clocking in at a whopping 230 shows in the past year. This week’s mix tape was made by Jake. Check it out below.

Mountain “Never In My Life”
Mountain is the sickest band ever. The riffs, the voice, the energy—all insane. They do the second best cover of “Satisfaction” ever. Felix produced a lot of really dope records. Video
Cerrone “Take Me”
My buddy David turned me on to Cerrone last year, widely considered one of the greatest disco producers of all time. I would also say he’s one of the best music-video producers of all time. Video
Charles Wright “Comment”
Didn’t know this guy was still at it. Thats why YouTube rules. He’s amazing and always has been. Video
Space “Magic Fly”
My buddy David turned me on to this song. So wicked, and the music video might be my fave ever. Video
Bloodrock “Lucky In The Morning”
Love this band so much, and the kickdrum in this song is ridiculous. Really keeps it going super hard. Monster riffage. Video
Budgie “Breadfan”
Love this studio performance of one of the best Budgie songs. That riff is ultimate. Burke Shelley’s voice is so so wicked. Video
Curved Air “Backstreet Luv”
One of my fave progressive-rock bands of the ’70s. Everything about them was awesome and over the top. Video
Les Rallizes Denudes
When a roommate turned me on to this band, I was 18 and pretty unaware that anything like this could exist. Needless to say, this band blew my mind and opened me up to a whole world of music and musical possibilities. Video, video and video
Quintron And Miss Pussycat “Witch In The Club”
Definitely two of the coolest artists of our generation. Love this jam. Prolly the most fun you will ever have at a show. Video
Chromatics “Hands In The Dark”
Real, real smooth music. Video
