   About Texas Tea


TWO PIECE COUNTRY GOODNESS!

Texas Tea



Texas Tea are currently working on songs for their 2nd album to be recorded in August 2007 at Junkship Studios, Brisbane. You can buy their first album "Take a Sip" HERE or just download a few tracks from iTunes here: Texas Tea - Take a Sip


"Brisbane's King and Queen of country"
Gary Ogders - Live Review 1/7/2007 - Time Off Magazine

"A note-perfect take on the timeless and authentic side of country music...An excellent first-up offering - 4/5."
Steve Bell - Time Off Magazine - "Take a Sip" Album Review

"Kate’s voice could suspend a scalpel in mid-air. Chairs collapse, birds explode, etcetera. Ben’s guitar and slide is the bed on which the cowboys collapse after Kate’s king-hits."
Carmen Keates - Live Review - Album Launch

"It's twangy, authentic, lonely-diner sort of music and quite, quite lovely."
Unknown - Live Review
