THE TELLERS

AFTER LANDING ON 62TV RECORDS LAST YEAR (HOME OF GIRLS IN HAWAII, MALIBU STACY, AUSTIN LACE, ETC) THIS YOUNG DUO FROM BOUSVAL AND LILLOIS REMAINED AS A BEDROOM SECRET UNTIL ONLY RECENTLY. THEIR STORY IS A SIMPLE ONE OF TWO BIG KIDS NOT REALLY INTERESTED IN SPENDING DAYS IN SCHOOL OR COLLEGE WHO INSTEAD SPENT THEIR TIME PLAYING THEIR GUITARS AND WRITING SONGS - SONGS THAT FALL SOMEWHERE BETWEEN THE SOUNDS OF BOB DYLAN, THE LIBERTINES AND VIOLENT FEMMES.AFTER LOSING A DEMO CONTEST ON BELGIAN ALTERNATIVE NATIONAL RADIO PURE FM AND RECEIVING A TRULY ENTHUSIASTIC RESPONSE, THE TWO BOYS BECAME MORE SURE OF THEMSELVES AND DECIDED TO SHOW THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY'RE ABOUT. IN OCTOBER 2005 THEY OPENED SHYLY FOR SAINT THOMAS AT BRUSSELS' BOTANIQUE CLUB. A FEW MONTHS LATER THEY WERE BACK AS A SUPPORT ACT FOR BELGIAN BAND VENUS...AND THEN? WELL, THEY DIDN'T LOOK BACK! FROM THEN ON THINGS WERE ON THE UP. AFTER THEIR SONG 'SECOND CATEGORY' WAS CHOSEN FOR THE CANON SELPHY ADVERT EUROPE-WIDE IN AUTUMN 2006 THE BAND WERE SWIFTLY EXPOSED TO A NEW AUDIENCE WHO WELCOMED THEM WITH OPEN ARMS. 62TV SOON JOINED THEM UP WITH V2 COOPERATIVE AND THE BOYS SET OFF TO CONQUER THE WORLD.THE TELLERS ARE SOMETHING ELSE. BEN AND CHARLES SHOW THE JUBILANT SUCCESS OF THE UNDERDOGS THAT SPRING UP FROM NOWHERE. OKAY, FROM NOWHERE THEY MAY COME BUT YOU HAVE TO AGREE THEY ARRIVE WITH A LOT TO SHOW! BEN HAS A VOICE THAT WILL SEND THRILLS DOWN YOUR SPINE AND CHARLES' ACOUSTIC ARRANGEMENTS ARE NOTHING LESS THAN BREATHTAKING. WITH A WEALTH OF FANTASTIC SHOWS UNDER THEIR BELTS AND THEIR EP NOW RELEASED IN BELGIUM, FRANCE, SWEDEN, THE NETHERLANDS AND THE REST OF EUROPE, THE TELLERS ARE WELL AND TRULY HERE TO WIN YOU OVER.SO, SINCE YOU'RE HERE, LET'S GET CRACKING!THE TELLERS' FIRST ALBUM "HANDS FULL OF INK" IS OUT NOW!♥ See blogs for purchasing info ♥ MyGen Profile Generator
