Two Teskey Brothers become four (adding Brendon and Liam) as the band emerges from a decade outside Melbourne to sell out city venues.

2. There were loads of hurdles ➿

Jun 29th, 2020 7:00 PM

An international record producer arrives in Warrandyte and they try to start work but things quickly fall apart; band dynamics, equipment and timeline. The process is much less like their first album. They’ve only got 3 weeks, while producer Paul Butler is in Melbourne, to record all the parts. The band have been so busy in the lead up and they’re not ready when they start. An assistant engineer is hired - SOREN! - and the process gets underway after a slow start.

3. We used every waking hour 🎼

Jul 6th, 2020 7:00 PM

It’s hot outside the studio, a cooking cauldron of emotions and sidelined expectations. Paul Butler must leave in just over a week but at what cost? As momentum gains the creative differences on the album grow. There’s no time to spend time on the strings, the backing vocals, the horns. The Band, Paul and Soren have to use every waking hour.
