The momentum propelling Teku Syndrom has never been more powerful. It began with the release of their single "Help Me Grow" in May of 2022, which garnered attention from around the world. Isaac Banks of FM 89.5 in Canberra, Australia called it "magnificent" and "excellent." And Serge Parent of FM 92.7 in their hometown of Edmundston, New Brunswick deemed it "absolutely beautiful." Despite the song being more of an inspirational ballad, its soaring vocals and driving delivery made it clear that the group was onto something big.
Fast-forward one year to May 2023 and Teku Syndrom release their full EP entitled The Path in front of a sold-out crowd at the picturesque Centre des arts d'Edmundston (their photo gallery displays the stunning environment that evening). The EP features 4 new tracks in addition to "Help Me Grow," which are turning heads with their no-holds-barred guitar-driven rock sound. The Path is showing the press and audiences alike the versatility Teku Syndrom brings to the stage--musicianship at a level as high as anyone; they can rock, groove, and create a live set list varied enough to appeal to audiences of all ages.
The next step for Teku Syndrom is bringing their live show to larger stages. The rehearsals are complete, the album is released, now its their time to step into the spotlight. Onstage the band does an impressive job of mixing originals and cover songs. It's all about crowd appeal and relatability, while still staying true to their own style and presence. Children of their own musical influences--ranging from GnR to Blondie, King's X to Iron Maiden--Teku Syndrom bring a powerhouse live show to the the crowd.
Looking at festival bookers and talent buyers: make Teku Syndrom the pleasant surprise in your line-up! People will come for the big name artist but leave talking about Teku Syndrom. The live show is family friendly with sing-a-long choruses. Teresa fronts the band with her angelic voice draped across the heavier sound. There are melodies for the singers in the crowd, scorching guitar leads for the guitar aficionados, complex but still rhythmic bass lines for the gear-heads, and thunderous drums for the headbangers. And the band can cater their setlist to the crowd, able to pull-off a powerhouse set of all originals or pivot to a mixed blend of popular covers mixed in with their original songs.
