Member Since9/3/2004
Band Websiteteaforjulie.net
Band MembersTravis Stanek [Thin Strings], Jad Simpson [Sticks], John Dwyer [Thick Strings], Michael Deresh [Thin Strings, keys and mouth noises]
InfluencesThe houses that we grew up in, our parents, the woods and neighborhoods where we played as kids, the places that we've traveled to, the lovers we've taken and the friends we've had, the connections and commonalities that we share, our imaginations, the concepts of space and time, little scenes, moods and moments that we create in our heads, kitties, the paintings of unknown artists, all of the music that we love so much, all of the little melodies in our heads, the idea that a song can actually mean something to someone; even a stranger to its source!

   About Tea For Julie

* "Tea For Julie's debut is one of the strongest self-released debuts I've ever heard. While showing many influences along the way, each track is distinctive and with its own voice. I highly recommended this band both recorded and live. Expect great things from Tea For Julie"

-John Richards The Morning Show KEXP 90.3 Seattle / Young & The Restless The END 107.7 Seattle

"Its hard to fathom that Tea For Julie are a relatively new band, Division being their first full length album self-released, no less. The depth of talent showcased on Division is truly spectacular; the songs are highly refined, intricate, and polished with a heavy dollop of panache. It is a brazen, if welcomed, move to incorporate such big sounds on a debut. Tea For Julie is a confident force. Theyve garnered quite a bit of attention on KEXP of late, and for good reason. Division is a stunning first effort, sure to be at the top of many local-release best of 2005 lists and perhaps atop a few national lists as well."

-Stella - Three Imaginary Girls (www.threeimaginarygirls.com)

Tea For Julie Post-punk lingers and indie rock explodes in this dynamic live session from Portland band Tea for Julie. Pop-smart hooks and melancholy lyrics bring well-timed hits of bass and humor as Tea for Julie rework the classic indie-pop form with a freshness only found in sincerity.

-M. Myers - KEXP 90.3 Seattle

Tea For Julie swells with luscious pop-rock nectars; their vocal melodies recall both the lilting melancholy of The Smiths and the refined angst of early '90s Radiohead, submerged in buzzing guitar hooks and buoyant drumming. The result is a consistent but adaptable sound that soars from graceful sonic craftsmanship to the heights of explosive, driving rock.

-Evan James - Portland Mercury

Hello again, collective entity known as Tea For Julie!
Division has experienced a renaissance of play from my music machine of late, and I'm left wondering -- when is The Sense in Tying Knots gonna have its turn?
Best wishes as always,
Jeremy

Do you like wizards?
Do you like ferrets?
How bout Olympia?
Would you rather have Keith Moon drum skills with John Candy looks or look like David Hasselhoff and be able to eat 53 hot dogs including bun in 5 minutes?
Finally what does it take to be friends w/ T.F.J. and where can I buy the new album?
Answer me!

Hey guys!
Supernatural Sound is discounting days. Some of our clients include the Shins, Stephen Malkmus, Bright eyes, Wilco, the thermals, rogue wave, and many more.
We recently had a last minute cancellation for the next 2 weeks. I am trying to fill the time so I am offering 50% off book rates. This is a great deal, and I rarely get to discount time (especially this much!). I am hoping to get bands in that wouldn't normally be able to make an album at Supernatural due to budget or are just looking to take advantage of a great deal. Check out our website for more info and look at our myspace page for new photos!
Please call or email Sarah ASAP, since we expect to fill the dates fast, for details and to set up a studio tour so you can see the space for yourself.
Look forward from hearing from you!
