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'.
