SAN FRANCISCO'S TEA LEAF GREEN ANNOUNCES MARCH TOUR DATES
THEIR NEW STUDIO ALBUM, TAUGHT TO BE PROUD, IS IN STORES NOW


Tea Leaf Green
"Got a little bit of soul / Got a little bit of rock n' roll in my bones." Thus opens Taught to be Proud, the new studio album from San Francisco's bustling Tea Leaf Green, a band of youthful gypsies with an abundance of both rock & soul. You can feel it in their hair-raising live performances and you can hear it in the headlong rush of their latest release. Conjuring the spirit of '70s Bob Dylan, The Faces, and early Elton John, Tea Leaf Green takes classic sounds and remind us exactly why we lifted our lighters in the air in the first place.

The album, released in November '05 on Reincarnate, comes on the heels of an epic year of growth for TLG. The band's mid-afternoon Bonnaroo set attracted an estimated crowd of 10,000 people, and the buzz has been swelling ever since. Recently, the band has sold out shows in Chicago, Denver, Minneapolis, and others.

I had read some negative feedback regarding TLG but I decided that I needed to see them live to form my own opinion. Went to the Denver show and they blew my freakin' head off. Will definitely see them next time around.
