About
Twin Brothers. Singers. Songwriters. Multi-Instrumentalists. Old Souls. At the age of 28, Eric and Kyle Travers have been writing songs together and stunning live audiences for well over half their lifetime. Growing up in the small town of Black Mountain, North Carolina , the twins were inundated with music of all kinds from a young age. Their father, and veteran of the east coast music scene, "Hurricane" Bob Travers, began teaching his sons how to play Blues and Rock music at the ripe age of 7. Papa Travers preached the importance of the blues, teaching them that it is the foundation of all American music. He taught Eric and Kyle how to play, sing, and write with emotion and feeling rather than focusing their musical education on sheet music, and it shows. His teachings still ring true in the brothers' music today, each note they play and sing is steeped in feeling and raw emotion. Together, they generate a unique and cohesive sound that is reminiscent of music made long before their time. Old souls indeed. In 2012 the twins formed Travers Brothership, a Rock/Soul/Blues outfit based in Asheville, NC. Now the band has three full-length albums and nearly a thousand shows under its belt. The brothers' music has matured much like a fine wine does. Over time, they have perfected the art of blending their unique songwriting, brotherly vocal harmonies, and thrilling musical improvisation together into a concoction that truly puts them in a league of their own.
