Brothers Osborne Pull Out All the Stops Covering Bob Marley & The Wailers and Tom Petty at C2C Festival in London

“It’s good to be here and see some familiar faces out here tonight!”

Brothers Osborne took to the London o2 Main Stage on Sunday evening, their first time gracing the stage since 2017. Men of few words, the sibling duo get straight to business with their opening track ‘Might As Well Be Me,’ letting the music do the talking.

If long, rocky guitar solos are not your cup of tea, this might not be the set for you. But for those of us who love watching the best of the best have a total jam session in front of 20,000 people, WHAT a set. They brought an absolutely electric energy to the room, that maintained even in their slower track ‘I Don’t Remember Me (Before You)’.

Speaking to the crowd, TJ gave a shoutout to a London institution, “We played an amazing venue here called Dingwalls – it was badass… It was like 150 people, we felt like the baddest ass mother f*ckers that have ever walked the earth. And now we’re here!”

With the audience in the palm of their hands, after a countrified-rock cover of Tom Petty’s ‘I Won’t Back Down’ came a Brothers classic – ‘I’m Not For Everyone’. It’s a song where we get a rare lead vocals verse from John, and as soon as he started singing the crowd went wild, ever supportive of their beloved Brothers.

After a cover version of Bob Marley & The Wailers’ ‘Three Little Birds’ and their own Dierks Bentley duet ‘Burning Man,’ it was almost time for them to leave the stage again.

Thankfully, they took their own sweet time leaving, and every extra second was lapped up, as they dove deep into an extended version of ‘It Ain’t My Fault,’ before returning to the stage again an hour or so later with Elle King to join Old Dominion for a country supergroup rendition of Eric Clapton’s ‘Cocaine.’
