Sons Of Bill

Oh God Ma’am

Out now Led by three Virginia brothers, Sons Of Bill have a harrowing back story for this, involving divorce, mental illness and a hand cut from a champagne glass that nearly put the youngest brother out of commission. Opener Sweeter, Sadder, Farther Away sounds like something from Springsteen’s Nebraska arranged for piano, and the laughs don’t come any faster after that, but there’s redemption in the anthemic indie-rock of Firebird ’85 and Old And Gray.
