Field Music

FIELD MUSIC, Sunderland's Peter and David Brewis, have released one of 2010's most celebrated albums, the 20 track double disc affair "Field Music (Measure)". It's Field Music's most ambitious album to date and has established the Brothers Brewis in the major league of rock n' pop's adventurous leftfield. 7th June sees the release of "Let's Write A Book" the second single to be drawn from "Field Music (Measure)". Younger brother David takes the lead with an inspired and surprising Northern funk work out, lyrically a call to arms for the perpetually apologetic and surely the most un-Field Music of Field Music songs yet.

The band (swelled to a 4 piece live with friends Kev Dosdale on guitar and Ian Black on bass) will be touring around the UK from May onwards and will be making an appearance at a selection of festivals across the summer and beyond, including being selected by Richard Thompson for Meltdown, headlining at the Queen Elizabeth Hall, and handpicked by Belle and Sebastian for their Bowlie 2 ATP event in December.
