Showtime: 20:30

Formed 2015 by two sisters Brèagha Cuinn (Guitar and vocals)

and Onnagh Cuinn (Bass and vocals) outside a small whiskey

village called Tomintoul in the Highlands. Due to their

remote location, the lack of other musicians meant they were

missing a drummer. To solve the issue, the band went ahead

and performed live with a drum machine.

What makes this an anomaly is the duo have been completely

DIY since forming but have achieved a lot on their own.

Nothing on Spotify, that doesn't phase me at all but I know

it can scare people off in the industry. They're super keen

to tour as opposed to playing one off gigs.

With multiple releases under their belt and tours stretching

from Europe to Japan (including a tour with The Hives)

Bratakus quickly attracted a wider audience.

The new album, recorded in Glasgow, Scotland and Studio

Gröndahl, Sweden (with Johan Gustafsson of The Hives) also

features The Hives drummer on forthcoming single 'Turnstile'.
