Two Teskey Brothers become four (adding Brendon and Liam) as the band emerges from a decade outside Melbourne to sell out city venues.

They release Half Mile Harvest(debut studio album), get some industry attention, sign management and navigate intense label interest as they prepare to record album number two.

Charismatic Englishman Paul Butler is recruited to produce what will become Run Home Slow.

"My first thought was, wow, what a voice what a band. What a groove. I bet they can't do it live" - Jeremy Furze, manager of The Teskey Brothers, after hearing Half Mile Harvest, the first album by The Teskey Brothers.

180 Grams

An album captures an artist or band in a room with a multitude of distinct personalities all pursuing the same goal: making a new piece of art they can be proud of.  

In a world where so much is laid out for us is there a more nervous and giddy feeling than playing a new album by an artist you love?

The word album has a more obvious etymology than you may think. 

In the early 20th century recorded music was released in a format of 78 Revolutions Per Minute (RPM) Bakelite records containing only a few minutes of music on each side. 

The big black discs were sold in a cardboard album and placed in individual sleeves like the pages of, yep, a photo album.

Fast forward to 1948 and record company Colombia combined business smarts, technological innovation and marketing strategies to popularize the Long Playing Microgroove format or LP as we now know it. 

This changed everything, allowing a longer and more immersive experience for music fans, 17 minutes each side which fit in 90% of symphonies. Classic.

British author Travis Elborough describes the change eloquently: "The album was welded in our collective consciousness".

Developments in the world of vinyl production lead to a warmer, richer sound favoured by audiophiles. Those in the know will tell you the best quality vinyl weigh 180 Grams. 

Most albums weigh 120 or 140 grams but 180 grams vinyl is sturdier, more durable and will last longer without warping.
