‘Brother’ is a record inspired and propelled by ideas of friendship, relationships and family. From a young age, Ruarri Joseph has held family close to heart. He became a father at the age of just 19, but rather than becoming overwhelmed by the responsibilities of a young family, Ruarri instead felt spurred to pursue his passion for music (as well as inspiring him to relocate to Cornwall’s coast to settle well away from city life in Deptford.) “Being a young dad was the best thing that ever happened to me. If you need something to focus and ground you…have children!”

“I worked with a band on this album, rather than doing it alone. I wanted ‘Brother’ to be a communal record for us all to sing to” says Ruarri “Brother isn’t an elegy. It’s a celebration”.
