Production for Brother & Co.'s debut album Unknow You was partially funded by a successful Kickstarter campaign in May 2013,[3] which was lauded by the alternative music criticism website Powder My Noise.[4]

Unknow You was recorded over four days in January 2013 at Q Division Studios. The album received advance praise from the music criticism website Jamsphere.com, which hailed the release as "utterly unique," and "one of the best indie albums [of 2013]."[5] Unknow You was first released in June 2013, but received a secondary release in December 2013. Following the album's second release, The Noise Music New England praised it as "unique and moving."[6]

The band released the two-song EP SACRED OBJECT in April 2014.[7] Joshua Pritchard will release an album of new material under the name Bad Person[8] on September 14, 2018.
