TEKE::TEKE

Montreal-based, psychedelic rock group TEKE::TEKE are intimately familiar with duality, of splitting reality between past and present, complex melodies and hushed interludes, intense action and lingering response. After building their sound through a careful assembly of countless splinters of Japanese folk, psychedelia, Brazilian surf rock, and other far-flung sonic touchstones, the seven-piece indulged in and learned from stretching out in free-floating experimentation while on the road. With their sophomore album, 'Hagata' (out now via Kill Rock Stars), TEKE::TEKE moves into the space between embracing the power of mythic pairings and identities lived at once. While performing on Audiotree Live, the band matches the intensity of their regal flute, rich horns, ecstatic guitar, and a thumping rhythm section with moments of cloudy meditation. During their interview with Audiotree Host, FINGY, the band chats about how fashion intertwines with their music, the band's creative process, and how they work collaboratively. Check out TEKE::TEKE on Audiotree Live!
