The Original Brothers And Sisters Of Love started out in Brighton, MI, in the mid-'90s as a duo of brothers, Jamie and Tim Monger, dubbed The Original Brothers Of Love. Each had played in and led many local bands before forming one together and had previously collaborated only when working on the many four-track recordings of their hometown friend, The Gok, prompting and participating in Gok's improvised songs and sketches with the help of Casios, guitars, and other friends. The Monger brothers actually took their new band's name from a Gok song in which he chants "the original brothers and sisters of love" during the chorus. Tim and Jamie Monger are both singer/songwriter guitarists who have added various instruments to their repertoire over the years, including harmonica, mandolin, and keyboards.
