Teskey Brothers go live
The Teskey Brothers
Live At The Forum
Out 15 May 2020
The highly-anticipated Live At The Forum album by The Teskey Brothers will be officially released on Friday May 15 (via Ivy League Records).
The live album was recorded to analogue tape during the band’s sold-out four-night stand at the the Melbourne, Australia venue last November.
“We thought we’d try and record a live album with a tape machine, which is madness, but that’s our format so it’s the way we wanted to do it” – Sam Teskey
The news comes in the middle of The Teskey Brothers’ Stay Home Slow virtual tour – where in lieu of live shows, the band has been premiering exclusive live performances at scheduled times. So far, they’ve released “Jealous Guy” (John Lennon cover), “San Francisco” and today, “So Caught Up”, which has just premiered on YouTube.
Here is “So Caught Up”:
Live At The Forum features songs from the band’s two critically acclaimed albums, Run Home Slow (2019) and Half Mile Harvest (2017), as well as “Jealous Guy”. Alongside the CD & digital release, the live album will be available on 180g double-blue gatefold vinyl. A limited version (with a different front cover) will also be made available exclusively to indie record stores.
The decision to release a live album was a natural one for The Teskey Brothers, who’ve spent the past few years touring hard around the world, including sold-out shows across Australia & New Zealand, appearances in New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Denver, Toronto, London, Dublin, Manchester, Glasgow, Paris, Amsterdam and Zurich. The band also have played at Latitude Festival (UK), Firefly (US), North Sea Jazz (Netherlands), Bonnaroo (US), and at home, Splendour in the Grass, Meredith Music Festival and Byron Bay’s Bluesfest, to name a few.
