Release Notes:
Having grown up in the shadow of DC bands like Fugazi and Q and not U, the
members of Tereu Tereu always admired innovation and sonic exploration. The
nation's capital has shaped some of the most aggressively original acts over the
years, which the members of Tereu Tereu have been fortunate enough to witness,
embrace, and absorb. When the band formed in early 2006, this adventurous spirit
was paired with a shared admiration of 60's pop records and the clever
sensibilities of great artists like Brian Wilson and David Byrne.
Beginning as a guitar and drums two-piece, the band grew from noisy post-punk
duo into a formidable rock outfit encompassing rhythmically complex basslines
and lofty trumpet work. They continue to grow artistically and craft unusual but
memorable melodies with varying instrumentation. The current sound of the band
has been compared to everyone from Elvis Costello to Broken Social Scene.
In early 2007, Tereu Tereu recorded their three song EP with help from Jason
Caddell (The Dismemberment Plan), Devin Ocampo (Faraquet, Medications), and
Travis Morrison. The band is currently preparing to return to the studio in May
to begin work on an album.
