“Brother”

"Brother" was written by Miles Mosley and Tony Austin, and recorded by Miles Mosley and the West Coast Get Down.

GRAMMY-nominated bassist Miles Mosley was raised by a Black father and Jewish mother of Russian descent; the Mosley family experienced intense racism due to their union and moved to Oakland in hopes of a better life. “The messages of the past have gotten us to a place of action, we are built to survive, survival is not static— we have the will to live.” This song reflects not only Mosley’s experience but explores the traumas involved with dual identity and hope that moves one to action.
