The Wooten Brothers new song ‘Sweat’ is the first collective music from the brothers in decades and opens the door for the album ‘Sweat’ coming in 2024.
The Wooten Brothers from oldest to youngest Regi on guitar/vocals; Roy on drums/vocals; Joseph on keyboards/vocals; and Victor on bass/vocals. Middle brother Rudy passed away in 2010.
On a personal note, I want to say that Noise11’s New York and Asia based Chief Operating Officer Nick Kontonicolas and myself are good friends of the Wooten Brothers and the family. We have been anticipating this new music for some time. When we first heard the story of the rediscovery of the early demos, and especially on how this project reconnects them musically with their late Brother Rudy. It had became both a professional and deeply personal career highlight for the Wootens and Nick and I share their excitement.

The ‘Sweat’ album will include both recently recorded music as well as recently rediscovered music from the 70s and 80s. On their recent Australian tour, Victor Wooten spoke about a cassette of their earliest material that they acquired which captured the brothers as teenagers right at the origins of their career.
