Hanseroth Twins Step Into the Spotlight, Sans Brandi Carlile, as a Duo: ‘You’re Naked… We Can’t Hide Behind Our Big Sis Right Now’
The Hanseroth Twins, Phil and Tim, 25-year mainstays of Brandi Carlile's band, talk about debuting as a duo and harmonizing with and without Carlile.
Fans have long understood it: “ Brandi Carlile ” isn’t just the name of a singer — it’s really a band, too, one that has included identical twin brothers Phil and Tim Hanseroth as mainstays and full collaborators for close to a quarter-century. And that, along with Carlile wanting to take a year off from the recording/touring cycle herself, led to the brothers re-learning what it felt like to specialize in two-part harmony — or do actual solo lead vocals — instead of their usual three-. Variety spoke with the Washington-born-and-bred brothers during a recent promo stop in L.A., where they sang for Warner Music Group employees and invited members of the “Bramily” fandom at a showcase, not long after after debuting at the Newport Folk Festival.
