'''The Sutherland Brothers''' (Gavin and Iain Sutherland) were a Scottish [[folk music|folk]] and [[soft rock]] duo. From 1973 to 1978, they performed with rock band [[Quiver (band)|Quiver]], and recorded and toured as '''Sutherland Brothers & Quiver'''. Under this combined moniker, the group recorded several albums and had a significant international hit single with the song "[[Arms of Mary]]" in 1976. In North America, they are primarily known for their 1973 single "[[(I Don't Want to Love You But) You Got Me Anyway]]".
Iain died of an illness on 25 November 2019, aged 71.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/news/1899314/ellon-singer-songwriter-iain-sutherland-most-famous-for-sailing-and-arms-of-mary-dies-aged-71/|title=Ellon singer-songwriter, Iain Sutherland - most famous for 'Sailing' and 'Arms of Mary' - dies aged 71|first=Neil|last=Drysdale}}</ref>
==Personal details==
* '''Gavin Sutherland''' (born 6 October 1951 in [[Peterhead]], Aberdeenshire, Scotland) – bassist and vocalist.
* '''Iain George Sutherland''' (born 17 November 1948 in [[Ellon, Aberdeenshire|Ellon]], Aberdeenshire, Scotland, died 25 November 2019, [[Wollerton]], [[Shropshire]], England) – vocalist, guitarist and keyboards.<ref name="Larkin">{{cite book|title=The Virgin Encyclopedia of Popular Music|title-link=Encyclopedia of Popular Music|editor=Colin Larkin|editor-link=Colin Larkin (writer)|publisher=[[Virgin Books]]|date=1997|edition=Concise|isbn=1-85227-745-9|pages=1155/6}}</ref>
==Career==
The Sutherland Brothers began their career in 1968 as '''A New Generation''', having some success with the single "Smokie Blues Away" (which used a [[melody]] based on the second movement of [[Antonín Dvořák|Dvořák]]'s ''[[New World Symphony]]''), backed with "She's a Soldier Boy" on Spark. Subsequently with the '''Sutherland Brothers Band''' (featuring bassist Kim Ludman<ref>{{cite web|url=http://outoftheblueuk.co.uk/|title=Home|website=Outoftheblue.co.uk|access-date=26 June 2019}}</ref> and drummer Neil Hopwood), they won a new [[sound recording and reproduction|recording]] [[recording contract|contract]] with [[Island Records]] and put out an album in 1972. Their first single as the Sutherland Brothers Band was under this contract and was a minor [[chart-topper|hit]], "The Pie", in January 1972. Their follow-up single was "[[Sailing (Rod Stewart song)|Sailing]]", which had much radio play but was commercially unsuccessful (it was later covered by [[Rod Stewart]]).<ref name="Larkin"/>
Their second album ''Lifeboat'' was billed simply as Sutherland Brothers, and was recorded with different backing musicians.<ref name="Larkin"/> They released another two singles in 1972 (one as the Sutherland Brothers Band, one as Sutherland Brothers), then in early 1973, in an effort to diversify and expand their folk-based sound, the Sutherland Brothers joined forces with a local rock band known as Quiver. Quiver was originally formed by guitarist [[Tim Renwick]] and bassist John 'Honk' Lodge (both formerly with [[Junior's Eyes (band)|Junior's Eyes]] and [[David Bowie]]), but soon comprised Tim Renwick, guitarist and singer Cal Batchelor, bassist [[Bruce Thomas]] and drummer [[Willie Wilson (drummer)|Willie Wilson]].<ref name="Larkin"/> Most of the members of Quiver are also featured on [[Al Stewart]]'s albums ''[[Orange (Al Stewart album)|Orange]]'' (1972) and ''[[Past, Present and Future (Al Stewart album)|Past, Present and Future]]'' (1973).
===The Sutherland Brothers and Quiver (1973–78)===
The Sutherland Brothers' greatest success came through their collaboration with Quiver, whereby releases were credited to the "Sutherland Brothers and Quiver". The amalgamated group's first single, 1973's "[[(I Don't Want to Love You But) You Got Me Anyway]]", was a minor success in North America, reaching number 48 on the [[Billboard Hot 100|''Billboard'' Hot 100]] in the US, N. 20 on the [[Cashbox (magazine)|''Cashbox'']] pop charts<ref>[http://www.cashboxcountdowns/70s_archives] {{dead link|date=June 2019}}</ref> and peaking at number 25 in Canada.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/rpm/028020-119.01-e.php?&file_num=nlc008388.4929&type=1&interval=20&PHPSESSID=g3a6dcpdijnv4dqkoi95vvf4s0 |title=Item Display – RPM – Library and Archives Canada |website=Collectionscanada.gc.ca |access-date=3 April 2012}}</ref> After the release of this single, and after only a few gigs with the band, Batchelor (who had been Quiver's primary songwriter) left.<ref name="Larkin"/> After a few more shows as a five-piece, Batchelor was replaced by keyboardist Peter Wood. The six-piece group then recorded three other tracks that were included in a heavily-revised North American issue of ''Lifeboat''. In the US and Canada, ''Lifeboat'' was credited to the Sutherland Brothers and Quiver, although Quiver did not play on the majority of the album's tracks.
The Sutherland Brothers and Quiver's proper full-length debut was 1973's ''Dream Kid''.<ref name="Larkin"/> Bruce Thomas, who had repeatedly been clashing with Iain Sutherland, then was asked to leave the group during a tour of Europe in March 1974. With only a week to go before the band was due to record their next album, [[Tex Comer]] filled in on bass for live gigs and a few album cuts, but Gavin Sutherland quickly moved over from guitar to bass, and the band continued as a five-piece.<ref name="Larkin"/>
After their 1974 album ''Beat of the Street'' supplied no chart singles, Wood then left the group, and the remaining members left Island Records for CBS.<ref name="Larkin"/>
As the band was switching labels, a cover of one of the earlier Sutherland Brothers recordings, "[[Sailing (Rod Stewart song)|Sailing]]", became a major UK hit for [[Rod Stewart]].
The September 1975 album release ''[[Reach for the Sky (Sutherland Brothers and Quiver album)|Reach for the Sky]]'' marked the debut of the Sutherland Brothers and Quiver on [[CBS Records International|CBS Records]].<ref name="Larkin"/> Their first CBS single, "Ain't Too Proud" (1975; featuring [[David Gilmour]] of [[Pink Floyd]] on [[pedal steel guitar]])<ref>{{Cite book
| publisher = Omnibus| isbn = 0711941092| last = Miles| first = Barry| last2 = Mabbett |first2 = Andy| title = Pink Floyd the visual documentary| location = London| year = 1994}}</ref> did not chart, but the second CBS single, "[[Arms of Mary]]" charted in April 1976, becoming a UK top ten hit single. "Arms of Mary" was also an international success most notably in Ireland and the [[Netherlands]] – in which territories the track was number 1 for respectively four and three weeks – with the track also reaching number 1 on [[Belgium]]'s Flemish charts. The track "When the Train Comes" was also released as a single.
The Sutherland Brothers and Quiver achieved one further UK chart success, "Secrets", in November 1976, from their next album ''Slipstream''. Guitarist Renwick left the group in 1977 and was not replaced; guitarist Robert Wood from the Murky Joe Band was scheduled to join the band on tour but family ties prevented it, this left drummer Willie Wilson as the only remaining member of Quiver. The Sutherland Brothers and Quiver recorded one final album in 1977, ''Down To Earth'' with a wide array of guest musicians helping out, including Renwick, [[Andy Pyle]] from [[the Kinks]], [[Rick Wills]] of the [[Small Faces]], [[Brian Bennett (musician)|Brian Bennett]] from [[the Shadows]] and ex-Moon drummer John Shearer on percussion. It failed to chart, nor spin off any hit singles.
===Back to being a duo (1979)===
The Sutherland Brothers parted company with Quiver (i.e., Wilson) by 1979, but continued to release material as the Sutherland Brothers for a time. In this period, they achieved one further chart success with "Easy Come Easy Go", in June 1979. However, they disbanded late in 1979 after recording a final album ''When the Night Comes Down'' on CBS, with the final single being "First Love" / "Crazy Town".

Subsequently with the '''Sutherland Brothers Band''' (featuring bassist Kim Ludman<ref>{{cite web|url=http://outoftheblueuk.co.uk/|title=Home|website=Outoftheblue.co.uk|access-date=26 June 2019}}</ref> and drummer Neil Hopwood), they won a new [[sound recording and reproduction|recording]] [[recording contract|contract]] with [[Island Records]] and put out an album in 1972. Their first single as the Sutherland Brothers Band was under this contract and was a minor [[chart-topper|hit]], "The Pie", in January 1972. Their follow-up single was "[[Sailing (Rod Stewart song)|Sailing]]", which had much radio play but was commercially unsuccessful (it was later covered by [[Rod Stewart]]).<ref name="Larkin"/>
Their second album ''Lifeboat'' was billed simply as Sutherland Brothers, and was recorded with different backing musicians.<ref name="Larkin"/> They released another two singles in 1972 (one as the Sutherland Brothers Band, one as Sutherland Brothers), then in early 1973, in an effort to diversify and expand their folk-based sound, the Sutherland Brothers joined forces with a local rock band known as Quiver. Quiver was originally formed by guitarist [[Tim Renwick]] and bassist John 'Honk' Lodge (both formerly with [[Junior's Eyes (band)|Junior's Eyes]] and [[David Bowie]]), but soon comprised Tim Renwick, guitarist and singer Cal Batchelor, bassist [[Bruce Thomas]] and drummer [[Willie Wilson (drummer)|Willie Wilson]].<ref name="Larkin"/> Most of the members of Quiver are also featured on [[Al Stewart]]'s albums ''[[Orange (Al Stewart album)|Orange]]'' (1972) and ''[[Past, Present and Future (Al Stewart album)|Past, Present and Future]]'' (1973).
===The Sutherland Brothers and Quiver (1973–78)===
The Sutherland Brothers' greatest success came through their collaboration with Quiver, whereby releases were credited to the "Sutherland Brothers and Quiver". The amalgamated group's first single, 1973's "[[(I Don't Want to Love You But) You Got Me Anyway]]", was a minor success in North America, reaching number 48 on the [[Billboard Hot 100|''Billboard'' Hot 100]] in the US, N. 20 on the [[Cashbox (magazine)|''Cashbox'']] pop charts<ref>[http://www.cashboxcountdowns/70s_archives] {{dead link|date=June 2019}}</ref> and peaking at number 25 in Canada.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/rpm/028020-119.01-e.php?&file_num=nlc008388.4929&type=1&interval=20&PHPSESSID=g3a6dcpdijnv4dqkoi95vvf4s0 |title=Item Display – RPM – Library and Archives Canada |website=Collectionscanada.gc.ca |access-date=3 April 2012}}</ref> After the release of this single, and after only a few gigs with the band, Batchelor (who had been Quiver's primary songwriter) left.<ref name="Larkin"/> After a few more shows as a five-piece, Batchelor was replaced by keyboardist Peter Wood. The six-piece group then recorded three other tracks that were included in a heavily-revised North American issue of ''Lifeboat''. In the US and Canada, ''Lifeboat'' was credited to the Sutherland Brothers and Quiver, although Quiver did not play on the majority of the album's tracks.
The Sutherland Brothers and Quiver's proper full-length debut was 1973's ''Dream Kid''.<ref name="Larkin"/> Bruce Thomas, who had repeatedly been clashing with Iain Sutherland, then was asked to leave the group during a tour of Europe in March 1974. With only a week to go before the band was due to record their next album, [[Tex Comer]] filled in on bass for live gigs and a few album cuts, but Gavin Sutherland quickly moved over from guitar to bass, and the band continued as a five-piece.<ref name="Larkin"/>
After their 1974 album ''Beat of the Street'' supplied no chart singles, Wood then left the group, and the remaining members left Island Records for CBS.<ref name="Larkin"/>
As the band was switching labels, a cover of one of the earlier Sutherland Brothers recordings, "[[Sailing (Rod Stewart song)|Sailing]]", became a major UK hit for [[Rod Stewart]].
The September 1975 album release ''[[Reach for the Sky (Sutherland Brothers and Quiver album)|Reach for the Sky]]'' marked the debut of the Sutherland Brothers and Quiver on [[CBS Records International|CBS Records]].<ref name="Larkin"/> Their first CBS single, "Ain't Too Proud" (1975; featuring [[David Gilmour]] of [[Pink Floyd]] on [[pedal steel guitar]])<ref>{{Cite book
| publisher = Omnibus| isbn = 0711941092| last = Miles| first = Barry| last2 = Mabbett |first2 = Andy| title = Pink Floyd the visual documentary| location = London| year = 1994}}</ref> did not chart, but the second CBS single, "[[Arms of Mary]]" charted in April 1976, becoming a UK top ten hit single. "Arms of Mary" was also an international success most notably in Ireland and the [[Netherlands]] – in which territories the track was number 1 for respectively four and three weeks – with the track also reaching number 1 on [[Belgium]]'s Flemish charts. The track "When the Train Comes" was also released as a single.
The Sutherland Brothers and Quiver achieved one further UK chart success, "Secrets", in November 1976, from their next album ''Slipstream''. Guitarist Renwick left the group in 1977 and was not replaced; guitarist Robert Wood from the Murky Joe Band was scheduled to join the band on tour but family ties prevented it, this left drummer Willie Wilson as the only remaining member of Quiver. The Sutherland Brothers and Quiver recorded one final album in 1977, ''Down To Earth'' with a wide array of guest musicians helping out, including Renwick, [[Andy Pyle]] from [[the Kinks]], [[Rick Wills]] of the [[Small Faces]], [[Brian Bennett (musician)|Brian Bennett]] from [[the Shadows]] and ex-Moon drummer John Shearer on percussion. It failed to chart, nor spin off any hit singles.
===Back to being a duo (1979)===
The Sutherland Brothers parted company with Quiver (i.e., Wilson) by 1979, but continued to release material as the Sutherland Brothers for a time. In this period, they achieved one further chart success with "Easy Come Easy Go", in June 1979. However, they disbanded late in 1979 after recording a final album ''When the Night Comes Down'' on CBS, with the final single being "First Love" / "Crazy Town".
