Burden Brothers are a hard rock band formed in Dallas, Texas in 2002, by lead singer/songwriter/guitarist Vaden Todd Lewis and drummer Taz Bentley, initially as a side project from their other musical endeavors. The band currently consists of Lewis (Vocals/Guitar), Bentley (Drums/Vocals), and Casey Hess (Guitar/Vocals). The band went on indefinite hiatus in 2007, due to the Toadies reunion and other interests, but reunited to perform at the Dia De Los Toadies music festival in September 2015.
