Australian
soul-blues band, The
Teskey Brothers, are returning to New Zealand for a
three-date tour.
The four-piece from Melbourne will play San Fran in Wellington on Thursday, October 4; Winnie Bagoes in Christchurch on Friday, October 5; and
the Mercury
Theatre in Auckland on Saturday, October 6.
After a sold-out headline tour of New Zealand earlier this year, The Teskey Brothers -
consisting of siblings Sam and Josh Teskey and
their friends Brendon
Love and Liam
Gough - have established themselves as firm favourites on
this side of the Tasman.
The tour will mark with the release of their new single ‘I Get Up’. It means Kiwi
fans will be among the first in the world to hear new music from the exciting
quartet, whose unique blend of raw soul and blues has been catching the
attention of music lovers around the globe.
Hailing from Victoria’s Yarra Valley, The Teskey Brothers independently
produced, recorded and released their debut album HALF MILE HARVEST in
2017 to critical acclaim.
“Their sound is Americana
blues, full of rhythm and soul, as if from the Mississippi region of New
Orleans… The Teskey Brothers’ music is infectious, tempting the audience to
swoon and groove in awe of their clever songwriting and a lead vocal that belongs
with the Motown greats”
“It’s no mean feat to
encapsulate the utter soul from historical artists, like Otis Redding… and the
ambient, almost Western feel of bands such as The Doors, but The Teskey
Brothers have managed just that in their latest release”
The album saw The Teskey Brothers notch
up an impressive list of achievements, from hitting #2 on the AUS iTunes chart
and selling more than 20,000 albums, to playing sold out shows in New Zealand
and Australia, touring the US and the UK and performing at festivals such as
Fuji Rock in Japan.
Their independent success also led to global record deals with Decca Records
(UK/Europe), Ivy League/Mushroom (Aus/NZ) and US indie label Glassnote Records
(rest of the world). The band will re-release
Half Mile Harvest worldwide
in October this year, adding two extra tracks, including the aforementioned new
single
I Get Up.
The Teskey Brothers are
undoubtedly one of Australia’s most talked about bands and an act that must be
seen live! Don’t miss the chance this October!
