Customer Reviews
Classic Album--From a Rock and Roll Band
Tea Leaf Green improves upon the formula that makes them a truly "classic" modern-day rock band. They have earned the respect and admiration of their musical cohorts for their live sets that feature extended jams, powerful musicianship, meaningful lyrics and a close relationship with their dedicated fanbase--but what sets them apart is evident in their studio work. On "Raise Up the Tent" Tea Leaf Green show that even though they know how to take it to another level in the live setting, they still appreciate and respect the "song." From the beginning to the end "Raise Up" delivers concise songs that feature Trevor Garrod and Josh Clark's maturing songwriting, catchy beats by Scott Rager and masterful production by David Lowery (Cracker, Counting Crows)...giving the listener a reason to put on the headphones, turn it up and find hidden guitar licks, outtros and a rocking album.
Overproduced and disappointing
If this is your first exposure to Tea Leaf Green, skip this album and buy instead Seeds or Coffee Bean Brown Goes Live, and then go to a live show. This album is over-produced and draws to heavily from the Garrod-side of Tea Leaf Green: pop-y songs and ballads, and not their best ones.
