With the release of their self-titled album, The Corbitt Brothers have shown listeners what a talented two-man band can accomplish.

Originally from Jacksonville, Fla., Newsome and Isaac Corbitt made their way to Nashville in 2008. In addition to being the lead vocalist, Newsome plays lead, rhythm and slide guitar, as well as drums and Dobro. Isaac is the backup vocalist and plays the harmonica and mandolin. These talented musicians are songwriters as well, and they wrote all of the songs on The Corbitt Brothers.

Their sound is a combination of an unpolished Zac Brown Band and a very young Alabama. The Corbitt Brothers do not showcase their songwriting skills on this album. While musically mind-blowing, their songs are virtually the same lyrically.

The first track “Middleburg Whiskey,” the second track “Fishin’ Song” and the last track “The More You Drink,” all have remarkably similar lyrics. They sound like the same song with a few words rearranged and a few omitted.

The instrumentation on the album is amazing. Each song showcases different instruments—steel drums, upright bass, harp—that accent the vocal arrangement perfectly. The Corbitt Brothers have a few stand-in musicians whose musical talents perfectly complement those of Newsome and Isaac’s own music ability. The instrumentation and showcase of playing ability outweighs the mediocre songwriting.

This album is a perfect listen for a night full of backwoods mudding or night fishing. With more attention to songwriting, The Corbitt Brothers could make future albums that easily etch them a place in country music history.
