YAINT sometimes go by the name of eryn brothers, hailing from the same Arkansas whirl of queer country that gives us jude brothers (their sibling), Creekbed Carter Hogan, and Willi Carlile. They’re one of the funniest people I know, and their long-awaited EP The Softer Side Of Me drops tomorrow. This is an album of all the lives brothers has lived — and the ones they haven’t.
