Brothers Creegan, Sleepyhead

By Dave Heaton

With so many bands sitting in their repertoire, Andy and Jim C. of the Brothers Creeggan are no strangers to the music business.

Sleepyhead, the fourth installment of this co-sibling side project, takes a few steps away from their traditional lively sound and begins to venture into some of the gloomier realms of life. While the first tracks of the album depict various stories of love, goodbyes, beauty and falafels, the latter few tracks go off to paint dreamy illustrations of death, loss and darker days. If you’re hampering for a heavy, lingering pop-folk sound, these two brothers may have just what you need.
