Curveballs - July 31st 2008 (with The Tibetan Tea Company)



Local trio The Tibetan Tea Company joined me in the studio this week for a night of music, banter and… cake! The band was originally formed by Mike (guitar/vocals) and Dan (bass) in 2002, with Paul (drums) joining last year. With a variety of styles and influences in tow, the band are looking to record a new EP in August with more live dates to follow – head over to www.tibetanteacompany.co.uk to keep an eye on what’s brewing! The band performed three songs for us in the studio, click the links below to hear them:
