Her Brothers use song to discuss worldly messages at the Envision Financial Concert in the Park Series
Submitted. On August 30 from 6PM to 8PM, the Envision Financial Concert in the Park Series is proud to present Her Brothers at the Kariton Art Gallery stage in Mill Lake Park (2387 Ware Street) in Abbotsford.
Her Brothers is a Canadian alternative rock band from Langley, BC. Together since 2008, Gabe Penner (lead vocals, guitar), Josh Penner (bass guitar) and Levi Penner (drums) have performed at a variety of venues and events around the west coast of Canada including fairs, cafes, community events, universities and churches.
Combining high-energy rock with an intense longing for meaning, Her Brothers hope to ignite conversations of significance surrounding the disillusionment and discouragement of their generation. Whether it’s stories of pain, messages of hope or challenges to stand up against the injustices here at home or around the world, these three brothers have a clear message: together we can change what’s not working in our world.
Musically, Her Brothers have been influenced by bands from Switchfoot and U2, to artists like Jack White, Sting and Peter Gabriel. “It’s really important to us that we create both contagious music that connects with an audience, combined with lyrics that inspire and wake up listeners to issues that might otherwise be avoided”, says Gabe. Her Brothers is about bringing those conversations, those issues; the things we experience, feel, or wonder about every day, to the table.
