The Sides And In Between

If you know a little about brothers Nick and Peter Furgiueles roots, it all makes sense. 'Our grandad started out in radio in the 40s and 50s in Columbus, Ga.', Nick explains. 'He was a huge promoter of R&B back when it was still super segregated, and he was playing black music and putting on shows with Little Stevie Wonder, James Brown, Sam Cooke & the Soul Stirrers, a lot of Gospel shows. So we grew up hearing all these stories, listening to all this music. Our grandfather was inducted into the Georgia Music Hall of Fame posthumously. And my grandma all her photo albums are like Jackie Wilson shirtless backstage, hanging out.' Not to mention how Nick and Peter used to raid their parents record collections, cutting their teeth on the likes of Buddy Holly, The Animals and The Kinks. 'Our favorite music comes from the 50s, Peter says, and that music influenced all the 60s bands we like.' LTD edition pink vinyl
