The Story:
Born and raised in the rugged stretch of western Montana where the wind cuts just as sharp as the truths people keep to themselves, the Walker brothers grew up working their family’s auto shop just off Route 191 in a town too small for secrets—but big enough for ghosts.
Their hometown, Four Corners, sits at the crosshairs of farmland, forest, and forgotten highways. It’s the kind of place where everyone knows your story, even the parts you haven't lived yet. Music was their escape and inheritance, passed down from a grandfather who played bottleneck blues on a rusted National resonator and a mother who sang gospel like she was arguing with heaven.
The brothers started making music together in their teens, cutting their teeth playing porch sessions, rodeos, and late-night bar gigs where the beer was warm and the heartbreaks were colder. But it wasn’t until 2022—after a tough winter, the death of their father, and a brief stint apart—that they came back together and formally became The Four Corners Brothers.
They named themselves not just for the town, but for the crossroads they felt caught at: past and future, blood and bone, guilt and grace. Each brother brought a different corner of the American musical map: Jesse’s gravel-road vocals and Delta guitar licks, Sam’s gospel-tinged harmonica, Eli’s Appalachian banjo roots, and Micah’s hard-hitting, heart-driven percussion.
The Devil That You Know (Debut Album, 2025):
Their first album, The Devil That You Know, is both an exorcism and an embrace—a raw, haunting collection of songs that tell stories of home, hurt, forgiveness, and fire. From the slow-burning opener “Ashes in the Rain” to the swampy stomp of the title track, the album wrestles with the darker corners of small-town life: inherited sin, addiction, betrayal—and the stubborn hope that comes from facing it all with family at your back.
The album was recorded in a barn-turned-studio on the edge of the Gallatin River and produced with minimal overdubs, preserving the intimacy and imperfection of their live sound. It’s not polished. It’s not pretty. But it’s real. And that’s exactly how they wanted it.
Legacy in the Making:
Since the release of The Devil That You Know, the Four Corners Brothers have quietly built a following across the Northwest and beyond.
They don’t claim to be saving the world—but in a time of noise and neon, their music is a dirt-under-the-nails reminder of where we come from, and who we still might be.
