When Three Ring Records was originally conceived,
we knew that we wanted our very first release to be by The Bother.
We made a wise decision, and so will you if you give this record
a chance to seep into your psyche! Recorded and mixed entirely in
Will Rahilly's San Francisco apartment bedroom, this album brings
a new meaning to the term "Homegrown".
Drawing influences from Leonard Cohen, Donovan, Ween, Astrud Gilberto,
Beck, Nick Drake, and Steve Malkmus, The Bother fuses finely crafted
melodies with well conceived lyrics resulting in songs that will
leave you happy, sad, and at times tapping your toes. William Rahilly
moved to the San Francisco area from New York in 2001, where he
focused on writing and recording music.
After the release of 'The Night Bleeds Gold',
The Bother played a series of shows with bands such as Decemberists,
Earlimart, Irving, Film School, and Minmae.
Since then, William has moved back to New York
to promote the album on the East coast and to begin work on a
new album. Be sure to check out The Bother’s website, and
try to get a copy of William’s first two home-made albums
– you won’t regret it.
Reviews for The Night Bleeds Gold:
“…It wouldn't be surprising if the
The Night Bleeds Gold’s inspiration was a warm day just
like today.” - Lost at Sea
“…[The Bother] indeed just perform
with the kind of aplomb you’d expect from a platinum-selling
artist.” – Smother
“The sort of album that keeps rolling along
until you realize that you've spent your entire day listening
to the thing over and over again. Rahilly's songwriting is entrancing.”
– Aiding and Abetting
“The Bother has delivered an album full
of crafty pop tunes and melancholic down-tempo songs, all with
enjoyable lyrics.”
– Mashnote
“There is no question that certain songs
on The Bother's debut CD border on absolute greatness…”
– Shmat
“[The Night Bleeds Gold] preserves the unassuming
and intimate quality of all things homemade…” –
