John and Rick Brewster of seminal Aussie outfit The Angels have today announced the upcoming release of a 36-song collection of some of their biggest hits, Brothers, Angels & Demons, as well as the band's first-ever book.

The LP, due out on 4 August, will feature tracks across the Brewsters' 50 year-music career, including works from the Moonshine Jug & String Band, the chart-topping hits with Doc Neeson and tunes from the recent The Angels line-up.

"We've survived all these years and gone on to make new music – something we can be proud of," John Brewster said of the album.

The Brewster brothers have also teamed up with long-time associate Bob Yates to tell the definitive authorised story of The Angels' history in a new book. 

Set for release on 1 August, The Angels shares the story of how an Adelaide pub band went on to become one of the country's biggest names in music. 

John & Rick will travel around the country in late August in support of the book to share their stories, perform music and take part in Q&As.
