The Wolfe Brothers are heading in to the future with 'No Brakes'

Any history of The Wolfe Brothers that doesn’t begin four generations ago isn’t quite complete. The revered country duo, comprised of brothers Nick and Tom Wolfe, have become renowned over the past few years for their jaw-dropping live shows and slow-but-steady ascent to Australian country music’s upper echelon. Part of their rise has been due to talent, and a lot of it due to hard work. But the truth is that music is in The Wolfe Brothers’ blood.  Their father, the man who encouraged them to start playing and helped facilitate their first shows in their early teens, was a rock drummer. His father played saxophone, touring around the brothers’ home state of Tasmania with a family band. And his father — Nick and Tom’s great-grandfather — was a fiddle player. So to say that The Wolfe Brothers’ story begins anywhere except four generations ago would be disingenuous; it would be ignoring the tides of history. If the musical gene was already in Nick and Tom’s DNA, it was their parents who brought it to full bloom. Their father guided Nick to the guitar and Tom to the piano, and their mother filled the family home with music, exposing her children to 90s country staples like Garth Brooks and Billy Ray Cyrus. It was almost an inevitability that the Wolfe family home would produce two of Australia’s finest country musicians. And The Wolfe Brothers are continuing to produce amazing tracks, adding their latest single ‘No Brakes’ to their catalogue and kicking off the decade with their sites on continuing to make their mark on other shores while continuing to make their mark at home with the start of Wolfe Fest in January of this year! Nick and Tom Wolfe join the DTP to discuss making their debut in Canada at the 2019 Calgary Stampede, staying connected with their dedicated fan base, and their new song ‘No Brakes’, among many other topics!
