"It's Only Rock 'N' Roll," and Brothers Osborne, The War & Treaty like it

Friday, November 4, 2022 – "It's Only Rock 'N' Roll," but chances are strong that Brothers Osborne and The War and Treaty hope the public likes it.

The musicians teamed up fo the classic Rolling Stones song "It Only Rock 'N' Roll (But I Like It)," the first release from a 60th anniversary tribute album to the Stones, "Stone Cold Country," coming out in 2023.

The song combines rock and soulful sounds. The Stones released released the song in July 1974 as the lead single of their October 1974 album "It's Only Rock 'N' Roll."

Brothers Osborne and The War And Treaty will hit the stage live at The 56th Annual CMA Awards on Wednesday, Nov. 9 (8/7c on ABC) for a not-to-be-missed debut broadcast performance of the collaboration. Brothers Osborne are the reigning CMA Vocal Duo of the Year and nominated again in that category this year, while the performance of "It's Only Rock 'N' Roll (But I Like It)" will mark The War And Treaty's first time on the show.

"We couldn't be more honored to take part in such a unique tribute to, not only one of music's most influential trailblazers, but one of our favorite bands of all time," said Brothers Osborne. "And to top it off, we get to enjoy the spoils with two of our favorite people and fellow Marylanders, The War And Treaty. We adore them both."

"It is such an honor to be part of a tribute to one of our favorite bands of all time and to share this moment with Brothers Osborne makes it that much more special," said Michael Trotter Jr. of The War And Treaty. "We cannot wait to share the stage with them next week at the CMA Awards and we are looking forward to hearing what fans think of our take on the song."

Trotter is one-half of The War & Treaty with his wife, Tanya. They recently made their UMG/Mercury Nashville single debut with the release of "Lover's Game." as the soul-infused track was co-written by the pair with Dave Cobb and will be the title-track for their forthcoming album.

CD review - Brothers Osborne There are no big social statements made on Brothers Osborne's self-titled album. However, as long as this brotherly duo matches John Osborne's funky/twangy electric guitar with T.J.
