The Burden Brothers are a Dallas-based rock band.
The band was formed by singer Vaden Todd Lewis (formerly of Toadies) and drummer Patrick "Taz" Bentley (formerly of Reverend Horton Heat, Tenderloin, and the Izzy Stradlin Band) in 2002.
The band can be regarded as a Texas rock supergroup since its members were all members of other Texas-based bands (of varying success and popularity) before joining the Burden Brothers.
The band is currently signed to Kirtland Records. As of 2006, they are currently recording their second full-length album.
