Brothers hope Xmas song will hit home
Band’s festive tune comes straight from the heart
A Rutherglen musical duo are hoping for a festive hit with their new Christmas single.
Braw – comprising brothers Iain and Andrew Mundy – released Is Anybody Home? last week.
The folk-pop duo hope the track’s message of focusing on what’s really important at Christmas, rather than flashy gifts and new technology, will prove a winner.
Iain told the Reformer: “Is Anybody Home? creates the image of a Christmas where everyone is distracted by technology and, in particular, mobile phones.
“Imagine walking down the streets of a snow-covered village on Christmas Eve.
“The lights are on and Christmas trees sparkle in the frost-covered windows, but it feels like nobody’s home.
“This song was written to encourage and remind people to remember that the most important thing this time of year is friends and family.
“So hopefully people will put down their phone, and really soak it all in this Christmas.”
Earlier this year the band released a special single for the European Championships, A Long Time Coming (We’re Going to the EUROS), which earned radio airplay on Clyde 1 and BBC Radio Scotland, continuing a busy couple of years for the brothers.
Formed in 2019, Iain and Andrew spent two years honing their act across the Glasgow music scene, before releasing debut album A Few Miles More at the start of 2021.
They also released the singles Whisky in Hand and Home from Home, with the former reaching No 50 in the official iTunes charts.
The duo are hoping to be back gigging regularly next year, and Is Anybody Home? will be available through streaming outlets.
