The Right Brothers
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Right Brothers are an American neoconservative band, consisting of Aaron Sain and Frank Highland of Nashville, Tennessee. They have gained recognition for their support of President George W. Bush and the Iraq War.
In January 2004, RightMarch.com [1] posted their first song, the country-flavored "Hey Hollywood," on their website, and in 72 hours it received 15,000 downloads. Within a few weeks the number was over 35,000. Later, a new song and video surfaced, the pro-life and pro-adoption "I Want To Live" [2] and received over 1 million views.
Their song "Bush was Right" [3] was a topic on MSNBC's Countdown with Keith Olbermann [4] and has been widely disparaged on cable news programs and liberal blogs [5] and promoted on conservative blogs [6]. RightMarch.com used it in an ad played on Fox News [7]. Air America and the BBC played and continue to play the song, mostly in an attempt to mock the band and the song's assertion. Despite subsequent events after the song was originally released, the band members have reaffirmed their claim that "Bush was right." A song from their album No Apologies is titled, "I'm in Love with Ann Coulter".
Before releasing their latest CD, The Right Brothers compiled a special 10-song disc to honor American troops. Remember: A Military Appreciation Project, is reported to have been used at veterans events, including at Arlington National Cemetery. In 2006, the band opened for Sean Hannity at a rally for Georgia Lieutenant Governor candidate Ralph Reed.
The Right Brothers have appeared on various venues, such as the Michael Medved Show, Maxim Radio, the Hugh Hewitt Show, the Lars Larson Show, C-SPAN, Sound-off Connecticut with Jim Vicevich, the Kirby Wilbur Show in Seattle, Washington, the Liddy & Hill Show in Phoenix, Arizona, the Martha Zoller Show [8], RightMarch Radio [9], Take a Stand with Adam McManus [10] and others. Their music also has been heard on the G. Gordon Liddy Show as well as NPR, blogs and online news sites.
