Brindley Brothers are a Washington, DC based band led by singer/songwriter/guitarist Luke Brindley. Luke is joined by his brother Daniel on bass, keys and vocals and Jared Bartlett on guitar.

Luke and Daniel grew up in the New York City area, played in various bands and both graduated Phi Beta Kappa with music degrees. They began writing and performing together in college in 2000. In early 2001 they released an acoustic record, How Faint the Whisper, under Luke's name. The record was highly praised in such national magazines as Acoustic Guitar and Performing Songwriter. Soon after September 11th, the Brothers relocated to the Washington, DC area to run a 200 seat music venue recently named one of Top 100 Clubs in the World by Pollstar.

Running the club greatly impacted their musical growth. Every evening for the last few years the Brothers watched national and regional acts performing. "We'd be completely different musicians if we hadn‰'t had the experience of running this club together," says Luke. "It's given us the chance to observe and pick apart the subtle things that separate a great band from a merely good one."

Luke eventually left the club to write, record and tour full time solo and with the band. In 2004 the Brindley Brothers released Playing With the Light to overwhelming response from critics and fans. The Washington Post called it "Magical...near perfect...a pop/rock gemm...a superb bid for any top ten list...an early contender for one of the best albums of 2004." Paste Magazine named it one of the Top 12 Debut Records of 2004 (alongside Franz Ferdinand, Jem, and more). Rolling Stone said, "Fans of Wilco and Gin Blossoms will swoon."

The Brothers sold several thousand copies of Playing With the Light, received incredible press, toured extensively, appeared on numerous radio and television programs and began selling out clubs regionally and playing some of the best venues on the east coast. The record was on the in-store playlist for Abercrombie and Fitch and other national stores in Summer 2005.

In late 2005 the band entered the studio with producer Jim Ebert (Butch Walker, Matthew Ryan, Jason Faulkner) to record a follow up album. After sorting through about 30 finished songs, they settled on 15 to track for the record. They are currently looking for the right label and management to handle the new record and the next phase of their rising career.
