TEKE::TEKE is a Montréal-based seven-piece group. The line-up includes Yuki Isami, Maya Kuroki, Etienne Lebel, Ian Lettre, Serge Nakauchi Pelletier, Mishka Stein and Hidetaka Yoneyama.

Style and influences

The group works in psychedelic rock, and its sound draws on Japanese folk, psychedelia, Brazilian surf rock and other influences. Their music is built through a process of combining these elements into something that sits between different styles and identities.

Releases and development

TEKE::TEKE develops its sound through experimentation, including stretching out material on the road and learning from that approach in performance. The group releases its second album, Hagata, which reflects this interest in fluid, hybrid forms.
