The Mallet Brothers Band

Founded in 2009 in Portland, Maine by brothers Luck and Will Mallett, the band carries forward the songwriting tradition of their father, folk artist David Mallett. Their current lineup features Luke & Will Mallett (vocals, guitar), Nick Leen (bass),Andrew Martelle (fiddle, keys) and Brian Higgins (drums.) Over the past 15 years, their working-band ethos and a dedicated fan base have carried them across countless tours, shows and festivals. The Malletts' music resists genre boxes: "We have never been just an alt-country band, a rock band, a jam band, or anything else...we let the song dictate the style." Their latest album reflects this philosophy, blending rock, roots, and country into a sound that feels both timeless and fresh.

In 2025, following the release of "Higher Up in the Hills," the band 's music proves that you don't need Nashville or Austin to create authentic American music that resonates far and wide.
