The Brothers Comatose have released new single “High Hoping” that speaks to the communal nature of uplifting messages.

Singer-songwriter Ben Morrison says of the track:

We wrote this song with our good friend Melody Walker – Grammy award winning songwriter who collaborated with Sierra Ferrell on American Dreamin. We all sat around in Addie’s living room in Nashville, TN and got to work on this tune. We decided we wanted to have a more messagy and uplifting tune and a few hours later, we emerged with ‘High Hoping.’ It’s the first time we’ve done such a large collaboration on a song and we’re stoked on the way it came together.

The Brothers Comatose has the ethos: “You’re here, we’re here, let’s party!” Now, as the stages and audiences have grown, that has remained true, preserving a “crowd-first attitude.”

Hailing from California, the band has had a long-held reverence for the traditions of Bluegrass music. But being so far away from the epicenter of Bluegrass, they haven’t been constrained by traditions. The result has been the emergence of “Goldengrass,” a term the band has fully embraced and used to describe this unique style of music, born out of Bluegrass, but with “the undeniable freedom and Rock n’ Roll attitude of California.”  

At the heart of the band are brothers Ben and Alex Morrison. The recent addition of the band’s first “sister,” Addie Levy, rounds out their blend. They are joined by Philip Brezina‘s violin, and Steve Height on upright bass.
