To kick off Homebrew, Brooke will be joined by local artist Rubita. Her new single 'Nigel' is inspired by the office job lifestyle and feeling like just another cog in the capitalist machine. A relaxed, indie-pop-Latino tune driven by frontwoman Rachel Kibblewhite's finger-plucked guitar and Christian Silva's Latino-infused percussion, the song comes out this Thursday. Tune in to hear about the single release show taking place at Bodriggy on July 23, and for a premier of the new song.
