The band came to be from seeking blues and roots of the greats from an early age when exposed to musicians such as Peter Green, Otis Redding and Ray Charles. The boys would watch closely in awe as their teacher, Sam Linton Smith, performed at St. Andrews pub on a Sunday, the very same St. Andrews in which Josh and Sam Teskey set up to busk as boys. Thus began the musical convergence of Warrandyte Blues-Soul and everything in between. And when brought to Melbourne CBD, people actually move to live music – a phenomenon that’s camera worthy.
Josh Teskey fronts the band with his smooth vocals and rhythm guitar. Evocative of Donny Hathaway, Teskey reaches out to play with his audience, ushering them through the emotional room of each song’s mind with airs of love, ardor and desire; creating an atmosphere you thought you were born too late to ever experience.
Joined by Sam Teskey on lead guitar and backing vocals, these brothers will have you rocking from side to side until you’re dancing, and then giggling at the absolute sublimity of the moment. Teskey will have you pink cheeked and stress free with his flirtatious solos and flattering, fatherly tones.
Along with the Teskeys, you’ll find the unflustered Brendon Love on bass. His instinctive and cool, calm and collected nature is what drives the hips of the audience and transports the energy in and out of high spirit to deep soul. Love is love, and love is bass.
Liam Gough completes the ensemble with his metronomic technique and veteran beat keeping. Gough’s talent effectuates the amalgamation of funk and blues, inspiring the music itself by teasing the fluidity with his heartfelt punctilious pulse. This drummer might as well be the only drummer you know.
Through gifts bestowed upon the family (and farm-ily) band, such as; BB King, Albert Collins, Jimi Hendrix and Marvin Gaye, they share with us city dwellers dynamics within a live sound that only clean country air and years of diverse varieties of live gigging can provide, and I’m not just saying that because I’m wearing overalls and ate my chicken.
The Teskey Brothers are an important affirmation of something we have always loved and something we hope to never loose – Home, Rhythm, and Blues.

The teskey brothers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ease me into the morning time where the daylight begins
Sun come ease me in
Ease me into the morning time where the daylight begins
Sun come ease me in
Mama roll me round to where the daylight sings
She doesn't feel alright
'Til she turns the day to night
And she's always on my mind, ah
Sun come ease me in
Ease me into the morning time where the daylight begins
Sun come ease me in, yeah
Ease me into the morning time where the daylight begins (come on)
Sun come ease me in, yeah
Mama roll me round to where the daylight sings
Sun come ease me in
Ease me into the morning time where the daylight begins
Sun come ease me in
Mama roll me round to where the daylight sings
Sun come ease me in
Ease me into the morning time where the daylight begins
Sun come ease me in
Ease me into the morning time where the daylight begins
Sun come ease me in
The Teskey Brothers' song "Sun come ease me in" is a soulful ballad that expresses a desire for inner peace and comfort. The lyrics repeat the chorus "Sun come ease me in, ease me into the morning time where the daylight begins" multiple times, emphasizing the longing for a tranquil morning. The singer begs for nature to provide solace from a world that is harsh and difficult to navigate. The mention of "Mama roll me round to where the daylight sings" can be interpreted as a wish to return to the childlike state when everything is simple and pure.
The song suggests that the female protagonist is unable to function during the day and needs to turn the day into night to feel comfortable. It is unclear whether the singer is suffering from depression, anxiety or even insomnia. The song is beautifully crafted with acoustic guitar and keyboard notes that add to the narrative. The emotions in the song are authentic and relatable to a wide range of people.

I think this song is about losing someone that past away... I just recently loss my father to cancer maybe I'm just feeling that connection to this song with that. It says "there's clouds between us" and "a soul with no face is a lonely embrace" man I miss my dad
