The Dunwells – two brothers, two cousins, and a best mate – have a unique sound that's described as "blending Celtic and American folk, rock, blues, pop and soul. Blind Sighted Faith, a 11-track collection of swirling melodies, was produced by nine-time Grammy-winner John Porter (The Smiths, Elvis Costello, Ryan Adams), and recorded during the summer of 2011 at Willie Nelson's Pedernales Studio in Texas, and Analogue Studios in England. The Dunwells' organic blend of acoustic and eclectic roots music is timeless, rambunctious and magical, with glorious five-part harmonies."
