Album:

BROTHER CANE was the first major band from now renowned vocalist / guitarist Damon Johnson (BLACK STAR RIDERS, ALICE COOPER, JOHN WAITE). The band’s self-titled Virgin Records debut is a testament to the South, a stiff shot of oak barrel-aged rock and blues, with just the right touch of Americana thrown in for good measure.Bad Reputation Records has remastered the 1993 debut album “Brother Cane“, reissuing a CD including 2 rare tracks as bonus material.Produced by Jim Mitchell (who co-engineered GUNS N’ ROSES Use Your Illusion I and II) and co-produced by expert Marti Frederiksen, ”Brother Cane” bristles with energy born from the roaring twin guitars of Johnson and Roman Glick and built upon the solid foundations of bassist Glenn Maxey and drummer Scott Collier.From the gripping harmonica intro and the Zeppelin-esque blues fury of opener “Got No Shame” to the slamming Southern vibe of “Hard Act to Follow” and on through the delicate texturing of “Woman” – a tune that builds into an all-out amp blowing frenzy – the album showcases BROTHER CANE’s high intensity aggressiveness and muscle while also letting the listener in on the band’s quieter, more introspective side.“Hey, we’re from Alabama, not from Los Angeles or Seattle,” laughs guitarist / vocalist Damon Johnson, who vas raised on a farm outside the tiny town of Geraldine. “We just said let’s be ourselves and the music will come out naturally.’ That’s what sets us apart and makes us different.”The distinctly Southern flavor of Brother Cane reflects the Alabama upbringing of the entire cast of musicians, including guest keyboardist Chuck Leavell (member of the Allman Brothers, and touring mate of the Rolling Stones and Eric Clapton). Using all local players was a small but important gesture for the band, and it contributed greatly to the album’s rootsy, unpretentious feel.Brother Cane highlights the group’s pure approach to their music — it reflects the emotional legacy of Southern living, of tightly knit families, rugged individualism and unflinching honesty. Ego-tripping is given the boot – you’ll find no rock star posturings here.Soulful, at places fiery and self-confident, Brother Cane rocks with groove too, and band that released 3 album before Damon started a successful solo career and became one of the most requested musicians from the last 25 years. Currently, Damon reformed Brother Cane and there’s anew album in the making.

Album:

The magnolia symbolizes resilience, so it is no wonder that BROTHER CANE have chosen to highlight the mighty tree for it’s return to original recorded music for the first time in… 28 years!”Magnolia Medicine” also sees the return of the creative partnership of singer / lead guitarist / principle songwriter Damon Johnson and award-winning producer & songwriter Marti Frederiksen. As guest we find living legends Johnny Van Zant and Rickey Medlocke (ex Blackfoot).The album opens with ‘If This Means War,’ a fierce, no-apologies hard rocking anthem that makes it clear this is no tentative reunion. BROTHER CANE’s return is bold, soulful, and fully committed … this record isn’t easing back into rock and roll, it’s kicking the door wide open.Production is huge, highlighting the tight musicianship and… Damon Johnson. We can’t get enough Damon Johnson. It’s a crime this talented dude didn’t recorded more so far… don’t worry, in ”Magnolia Medicine” he delivers an arsenal of talent.All songs are terrific. Believe us. But we need to mention ‘Prince Charming’. Written the day after Gary Rossington’s funeral in March 2023, the song came to Johnson fully formed. A tribute to a man who had become not just a hero but a friend and mentor - the legendary Lynyrd Skynyrd guitarist who had personally chosen Johnson as his replacement before passing away at the age of 71. Now, with the backing of Skynyrd bandmates Johnny Van Zant and Rickey Medlocke, ‘Prince Charming’ is an emotional piece of art.This is one of the best album you’ll hear this year… go and get it!
