Live At The Hammersmith Apollo (2025)

"Many would say that releasing 3 live albums in eight years is two too many. But Australia’s Teskey Brothers understand, that as impressive as they are in the more controlled studio environment, the stage is where they sparkle. Additionally, the audience-enhanced locale generally raises the temperature of the brother’s blue-eyed soul. Sam veers off into vibrant scat-inflected wordless vocals that seem improvised and Josh develops his contributions into extended guitar solos that would be out of place outside the more liberal borders of the live arena. When the siblings bounce off each other on the opening “What Will Be,” with Sam howling, humming and groaning as Josh answers on guitar, and no other instrumentation, the energy is palpable. The groove gets enriched by a subtle gospel undercurrent as Sam pushes his voice into areas he has seldom, if ever, conveyed in the recording studio. A cover of Otis Redding’s classic arrangement of “Try a Little Tenderness” makes a welcome appearance." (Rock & Blues Muse)
