The Big Takeover

It doesn’t happen often, but from time to time, you are lucky enough to stumble across an artist making music that sounds both like the best of the past and an excellent signpost to where things are, hopefully, headed. –Dancing About Architecture

Teas n Seas is an enjoyable, well-produced and impeccably-performed album – a satisfying collection of eleven blissful songs. – At The Barrier

If 70s Beach Boys/Fleetwood Mac/ Todd Rundgren and the beautiful bountiful radio candyfloss MOR/AOR rock pop with an occasional country rock tinge magic is your thing, then this album could well be for you. – Monolith Cocktail

I have said this an unexpected number of times this week already, but this is music which goes straight onto my “new favourite band” and “potential record of the year” lists, and the ubiquity with which that has happen in a matter of days must speak volumes about a fight back against the low bar of current music on behalf of fans of discerning music. — The Big Takeover

It’s a record full of catchy tunes, beautifully arranged and produced, with a sound reminiscent of some of musical genius Todd Rundgren’s output. — Americana UK

Americana UK

Sitting firmly at the pop/rock end of the americana spectrum, “Teas and Seas” is the latest release from singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer Marc Teamaker, who was born and raised in the Bronx, New York City, but is now based in Stamford, Connecticut. Don’t be thinking that its placement at a particular end of the americana genre spectrum prevents “Teas and Seas” being a good listen; it undoubtedly is. It’s a record full of catchy tunes, beautifully arranged and produced, with a sound reminiscent of some of musical genius Todd Rundgren’s output.

Each of the songs here is written by Teamaker, who plays all of the instruments with the exception of the drums; he’s clearly a (multi-) talented chap. Drums were played by Teamaker’s long time collaborator, Jared Nixon. This album is clearly a labour of love for Teamaker, inspired by jaunts across America as well as the tragic loss of his wife; as he puts it “Teas n Seas is a series of love songs for my late wife Kathleen, both experienced and imagined. It’s a kind of conversation with her on various road trips. She’s gone but I’m still batting around ideas with her and it’s like we are writing the songs together.” Particular highlights on the record are ‘Charlotte‘, ‘Sing Song‘ (featuring some really nice guitar playing by Teamaker) and ‘North Dakota’.
