SONS OF FATHERS CEMENT "BREAKOUT" (AUSTIN CHRONICLE) STATUS WITH WORLD CAFÉ NEXT AIRING, DAYTROTTER TAPING, & EMUSIC ONE OF "12 TO WATCH IN 2012"

Sons of Fathers – the band whose harmonies have earned them comparisons to Mumford & Sons and Crosby, Still & Nash with an infusion of Texas grease – are cementing their "breakout" (Austin Chronicle) status with a Next segment on the January 30 airing of NPR's World Café and a February 6 Daytrotter session taping.

They were also named one of "12 to watch in 2012" by eMusic, which called the self-titled debut album "terrific" and "barn-burning," continuing, "nothing can take away the songwriting duo's brotherly harmonies, their band's ruckus-raising live shows, and finely-honed, geographically-inspired tunes."

Aspen, CO's KSPN radio said, "You guys are like Mumford & Sons but with half the members and twice the sound."

The band has been barnstorming radio. KPFT (Houston, TX) has spun seven songs while their hometown KUT has played six. Here are clips live from KPFT and KSPN:
