NEW MUSIC! The Dunlop Brothers, Vol. 2 AVAILABLE NOW!

The Dunlop Brothers are a Canadian Band from Hamilton, Ontario, featuring songwriters and brothers Matt and Justin. Blending tight harmonies, expressive guitar work and story-driven songwriting, their sound is instantly appealing, melodic and built for the stage.

Known for their authentic live performances and masterful musicianship, either as a duo or full band, they deliver songs that feel timeless yet immediate. 

Their latest release, The Dunlop Brothers, Vol. 2 was recorded at Hamilton’s well-respected Catherine North Studios, which has played host to the likes of local Hamilton legends Junkhouse, as well as Big Sugar, City & Colour, Broken Social Scene, The Glorious Sons, Big Wreck and more.

Thoughts on Vol. 1:

“The Dunlop Brothers’ Old Dive Bar is from the duo’s first album called, appropriately enough, Volume One.  This track wins major points for me because it impeccably paints a picture. Storytelling is key here, and I am all about it”  -Adam Carter, CBC Radio (November 2018)

“…The Dunlop Brothers debut is chock full of sweet melodies and impeccably performed tunes they assembled alongside producer/engineer Mike Monson at Catherine North Studios. If you’ve seen either or both the Dunlops on the local stage, you won’t be disappointed with this collection of tunes” -Ric Taylor, View Magazine Hamilton (Sept 2018)

“Matt and Justin Dunlop have been diligently recording 14-original tracks in Hamilton’s Catherine North Studio that display an exceptional sense of melody and storytelling” -Graham Rockingham, The Hamilton Spectator (August 2018)

“Beautiful Music out of Hamilton…Sounds like: Straight talking storytelling”-Larry Lootsteen/Alan Cross, A Journal of Musical Things (August 2018)
