THE FORBES BROTHERS: The Wrong End of the Bar

CHECK OUT THE
NEWLY ADDED SONGS
ON THE PLAYER

     Winners of more than 23 Detroit Music Awards, their CD "The Wrong End of the Bar" has sold more than 40,000 copies nationwide. A new CD is in the process of being mixed and should be released in the near future. "One of Detroit's only true country acts at the start of the 21st century, the Forbes Brothers demonstrate their attention to songcraft on their 2003 release, The Wrong End of the Bar.
     Vocalist Ron Jacobs lends his impressive drawl to topics like drinkin', lovin', and losin', and the band fills out the space nicely, particularly the Dobro and banjo pieces performed by multi-instrumentalist Tom Hollyer. Highlights include the title track, in which the narrator recounts the fateful night he sat down at the wrong end of the bar and how the woman sitting next to him would eventually become his ex-wife, and the cheatin' song "Two-Step," which begins "She's out doing the two-step/While I'm home doing the 12 steps." Surprisingly well done for an independent country band, expect to see more of the Forbes Brothers in years to come." by Zac Johnson (All Music Guide)

     "It is common belief that The Forbes Brothers ARE Detroit Country. One of the areas most popular bands, with nearly all original songs, you just cant miss seeing the boys." DetroitCountryMusic.com

The song "Over Again" from the CD was featured on CBS-TV on an episode of "Criminal Minds".

The Forbes Brothers song "Two Step" from our CD "The Wrong End of the Bar" is in the Dreamworks Pictures release "Disturbia," starring Shia LaBeouf, Carrie-Anne Moss, and David Morse. NOW AVAILABLE ON DVD
