The much-anticipated debut album from The Brothers Osborne, Pawn Shop, was released today. The songs that helped them gain recognition
are featured, including “Rum and “Stay a Little Longer” (currently number 3 on the
charts). The duo, comprised of John and
TJ Osborne, moved to Nashville separately to pursue their country music careers
but soon realized they had something special when playing together. The band’s own musicians are featured on the
album, giving it a full band sound among musicians that have spent countless
hours playing together. The album
features both twangy, traditional sounding country songs to southern rock. Superb song writing is on display throughout,
along with TJ’s phenomenal baritone vocals and John’s background harmonies and amazing
guitar skills make Pawn Shop an album
to remember.

Let that garden hose run
