#4M: Oh, Brother! Part 4


It’s a new month, and we have a new musical conductor. Cathy from Curious As A Cathy gets to choose our themes this month. Today’s theme is Free Choice.

In the past, we talked about bands composed of siblings, or siblings with friends. This is a continuation of that post. I should note, the source that I am using is rather lengthy. I am only sharing bands that I am familiar with.

Please enjoy this week’s playlist:


  1. The Spencer Davis Group, a British band formed in Birmingham, England, by Spencer Davis with Steve Winwood, his brother, Muff Winwood and Pete York. Today’s Song: I’m A Man
