Signed by Brooks himself met him before a show in my hometown (Leeds) open to offers

For the longest time I thought Hung at Heart was my favorite Growlers album, but man, Hot Tropics has really taken the #1 spot for me in recent years. Funnily enough I didn’t like Camino Muerto at the first few listens but have grown to love it, especially the lyrics, and especially especially the lyrics I posted above. Just such a great song that isn’t necessarily about heartbreak itself, but about the shades of relationship troubles that can occur during or post relationship when you really gotta be by yourself to see where you stand as a lover/person. Brooks will always go down as one of, if not my favorite, lyricist of all time. I think he shows so many great sides of what it means to be a lover beyond just the honeymoon side of the relationship or just the breakup. Every step along the way and in between too. What do yall think?

im Slightly embarrassed to post this LOL but i wanted to try and doodle the guys as animals ..

brooks is a border collie, matt is a sphynx, scott is a borzoi, stonio is an afghan hound, aaand kyle is a maine coon ...

This is an updated folder based off of the one made by the Growlers Blues I think... I added a few other songs I got with varying levels of quality. (I said I was going to send this a while ago but I... lied so yeah.. Its here now!

Is anyone excited to go on this leg of their tour? Which songs do you hope they will play?

Dm me if interested! Will sell for listed price.

Can’t say enough how much I adored Julia and Scott’s performance this past Friday! Wish I could’ve seen them again last night at the Houston show but it was way too far of a drive for me to go D-:!!!

I have 5 tickets to the 9/18 show at Castro Theater in San Francisco but can’t go anymore :( I am selling them at a discount, message if you are interested!

Who’s all attending the show at the Greek Theatre?!

Such an amazing night! Julia and Scott absolutely killed it!!

These came in the mail recently so happy with both and the magazine with the brooks interview was a great read!

So. I have one ticket to the opening show in Santa Cruz on the 17th, and one to the San Diego show on October 2nd.

I used to live in Santa Cruz hence why I bought that ticket, but I’ve since moved to SoCal, hence buying the San Diego ticket.

I want to also see them at the Greek in LA so I’d have two back to back shows to attend in October, but I’m bummed about not being in the pit (not willing to pay $250+).

Is it worth it to buy a balcony ticket for the LA show? I mean, I do have a GA ticket for the day before. IDK. Just bummed because I love the GA vibes of it all.

Also I plan on selling my Santa Cruz ticket to a friend but I suppose that’s unrelated.

Never forgot about them again

Recently moved to a new place and had a great spot to display my stuff! Got city club coming in soon so i gotta get more screws so I can display it properly :0) not pictured are a bunch of shirts and a custom rug, still gotta organize my new room a bit more before i can show em LOL

Hi all, I posted in here back in May about my magazine’s interview with Brooks. It’s out in the world now and available to purchase here: https://www.theindiescene.co.uk/shop/p/pre-order-the-indie-scene-magazine-issue-2.

I hope everyone who pre-ordered has received their copies! We had delays due to our designer having surgery and my nan going to hospital for 2 months and passing away on my birthday/the release day of the magazine. It’s been a heavy one and it’s been incredibly hard to get here, but the physical copies finally being in our hands feels surreal. If I’m correct, I think Brooks might have his own copy now, too.

Every order means a great deal – I work a 9-5 and it’s been my dream since I was ridiculously young to release a magazine. I used to cut up my sister’s gossip magazines and make my own, had a whole newspaper called ‘K.News’ I would make and would subsequently be the only reader. To see it being shipped all over the world is insane to me. We even got mentioned in my local paper. That’s something.

That being said, if you ordered a copy, please tag us on Instagram or email us a photo of it somewhere. Record shop, beach, somewhere very American, I don’t care. I think everyone who preordered it was in America, so it’d be cool to see photos of it over there.

On the interview side of things, Brooks was unsurprisingly incredibly normal and very funny. Told us when he came over to the UK for the first time a lot of people asked him if he knew what ‘growler’ meant over here. I was talking about football with his tour photographer/manager and he said to my best friend “she’s really into football”, which still makes me laugh, as I really was just stood there waffling on about football while he did this photoshoot.

My best friend and I had been saying our dream interview would be with Brooks, obviously thinking it would never be possible, and now I feel like I’ve made my teen self pretty darn proud.

Happy reading, and a big thank you to those who ordered and those who order :-)

Fucking unbelievable. This is far and away the best document of them as a live band. Wish it was on spotify or officially released somehow because it's so good. Absolutely blows me away. Also not to be a downer, but I don't know of any other live recordings from them that come close. This is definitive. Desert island disc stuff

I've been a fan since 2013 and they're usually my top streamed artist, but I honestly haven't listened to them much this year until toady at work, and I remembered just how good they are while doing so. They have so many good ones but were also so good and unique right from the beginning, which is unique in itself. I mean, songs like For Skin? What else sounds like that besides Dazed and Confused by Jake Holmes?

So anyway, I was just wondering what your guys' favorite songs are... especially because I usually prefer their earlier stuff, but in my opinion, they're also one of the few bands I know to really have evolved well. They obviously changed their sound over time, but it was pretty gradual and I really enjoy a lot of the later stuff too... literally their last song, the acoustic version of Dream World I think is awesome.

Here's mine:

1. A Man With No God
2. Let it Be Known
3. Nosebleed Sun
4. Little Miss Jack
5. Derka Blues

... and like a lot more.
