Remember how we used to discover music before the smartphone/digital device era? Settle in for a soulful, nostalgia-evoking indie rock opus by the Nourallah Brothers, ‘We Listened to the Radio’

The simple title explores the unshakable bond between the brothers growing up, memories of staying up late, and listening to the radio. Opening with stirring guitar rhythms and hopeful, delicate piano melodies and ethereal atmospherics, we’re instantly taken back in time.

Brothers Faris and Salim Nourallah were estranged for over two decades; their musical reunion this year hits deep, feeling personal and poignant. The lyrics are straightforward, but it’s the way in which they’re sung that makes this compelling and tugs on your heartstrings. The vocal interplay and contrasting tones between the brothers is fantastic. One takes the higher notes, while the other grounds the track with his deeper tones.

This is not a complicated listen but its that very simplicity and soul its compostion that makes this track so charming.

Brian Sampson from Western Vinyl discovered the brothers’ talent way back in the late nineties, but the brothers took separate paths then. Now, it feels like they’ve come full circle with their brotherhood, reuniting for the first time over twenty years to record and release a string of indie tracks.

We Listened to the Radio is a track that invites listeners to gather around the campfire, and soak in the warmth and glow of love and connection. To remember the things you love to do the most and the people you love doing it with. It’s a track to remember, reflect and heal. Share this today with someone you used to ‘listen to the radio’ with.
