Belgian summer shows for Rob Heron & The Tea Pad Orchestra are coming up
05-08-2024Rob Heron & The Tea Pad Orchestra have been gleefully trampling over genre boundaries for over a decade now, chucking Western Swing, Blues, Country, Rock & Roll, Soul and more into their musical gumbo, but always sounding mostly just like themselves.
Based in Newcastle but hailing from across the UK, the Tea Pad have released five albums and announced their sixth is on their way. Their upcoming album has the title “Feet First” and was recorded in just two days at Lightning Recorders in Berlin, Germany. The studio is well known for producing authentic analogue recordings, live in the room, and straight- to-tape. This ‘capturing of a musical moment’ can really be heard in the new Tea Pad Orchestra record. The addition of Ben Powling on saxophone has also elevated the band’s sound into a new and exciting era! After a decade of honing their craft, they have never sounded so good!
First single "Good Lovin'" is out now. Feet First will be released in October and a weekend of Summer shows in Belgium is coming up:
09/08: Gent, BE - Missy Sippy
10/08: Wenduine, BE - Retro Sur Mer
11/08: Waardamme, BE - Cowboy Up
