Event details: Tea Leaf Green
Description
Following the 2005 release of their critically acclaimed album, Taught to be Proud, Tea Leaf Green toured North America becoming one of the most exciting and fastest growing rock bands today. Busting out of a revitalized San Francisco music scene, the group has honed their strength as both songwriters and improvisers to catapult to the next level, keeping audiences screaming for more.
Thanks to their dedicated and connected fan base, the band has gone from playing small bars to large theatres in just a few short years by consistently delivering fresh, mind-blowing live performances. After winning the Song of the Year Jammy award for Taught to be Prouds title track, the road warriors plowed ahead with sold out shows in many major markets including Los Angeles, Denver, Chicago, Atlanta, Minneapolis, Philadelphia, New York and, most notably, the historic Fillmore Auditorium in their hometown of San Francisco, CA. The bands chops earned the respect of their musical contemporaries as 2006 also found the band opening for the Dave Mathews Band, Trey Anastasio, Govt Mule, and Bruce Hornsby.
Their latest release, Rock 'n' Roll Band (released October 31, 2006, on SCI Fidelity Records), captures lightning in a bottle. Available separately in both CD & DVD formats, the film joins the band for an evening performance at The Fox Theater in Boulder, Colorado and offers an intimate look at a day in the life of a young rock band on the rise. For the DVD, director Justin Kreutzmann, son of The Grateful Deads Billy Kreutzmann, provides both a snapshot of where the band is today and clear evidence of where they are headed tomorrow. Part concert film, part documentary, Rock 'n' Roll Band balances blazing live performances with private moments of artful reflection and presents the magic that is Tea Leaf Green for all to enjoy. Just one viewing will be enough to assure you that rock 'n' roll never died.
For those new to Tea Leaf Green, Rock 'n' Roll Band, serves as the perfect introduction to a group capable of producing beautiful, timeless works like One Reason and Faced with Love that show off their versatile songwriting abilities. Longtime fans will appreciate the bands mastery of inspired, transcendent improvisation, as evidenced by the triumphant versions of Jezebel and Devils Pay. The CD offers the same epic Fox Theatre show in audio-only format.
Honoring a long lineage of rock bands that have come before them, Tea Leaf Green pays tribute to the past while carving a distinct name for themselves today. Its refreshing to have something to look forward to.

More about these performers
Tea Leaf Green
“We’ll raise up our tent in any town that will have us….” declares the new studio album by San Francisco’s Tea Leaf Green. Produced by David Lowery (Cracker, Camper Van Beethoven, Counting Crows, Guster), the album presents eleven, well-crafted songs that tempt the listener to set off on the archetypal American adventure. In times past, you could run away and join the circus or ride the freight trains, and Tea Leaf Green offers the same seductive pull to today’s kids. Sharing some of the style and substance of musical contemporaries My Morning Jacket, Wolfmother, and the Raconteurs, Tea Leaf Green conjures the spirit of bands like ‘70s ...More about The Bottleneck
