The Tea Party is super underrated. They have such unique sound and are hella talented. Glad you guys got to check them out. After another song or two, they'll be on your list of favourite Canadian artists.

[@mitchelltyler5972]

NOOO FUCKING WAAAY!!!! I can't believe you guys actually reacted to The Tea Party.. Incredible three man band from Canada. They have SO many great songs. Other songs of theirs to check out: Master and Margarita, Temptation, The Bazaar, Army Ants, Alarum, Cathartik, Fire in the Head, Walk With Me... the list just goes on and on really.

[@StanleyPain]

One of my all-time favourite bands.

[@MrPeeps-vo8mr]

Holy crap! A reaction to the Tea Party 🤯 Definitely wasn't expecting this. Such a great band, hoping you do more from them.

[@Protege2001]

I know, they are rare and I'm pretty sure I've watched them all.

[@darkbladetri]

Its a Canadian band i grew up listening to them moist three days grace and our lady peace on Canadian

[@tminus1019]

I thought the exact same thing

[@eltonazo]

Me to im surprise and happy that tea party is representing canada in the rock scene

[@Danimal77]

One of the most criminally underrated hard rock trio's of ALL-TIME!!!! Their entire discography is AMAZING!!!

[@PabloRichardFernandez]

I saw these guys live about 15 years ago at an outdoor concert and as soon as they broke into a gut-punching rendition of Heaven Coming Down, the skies opened up and unleashed the most epic lightning and thunder storm. Easily one of my favourite concert experiences of all time!

[@edrueter9]

I know I'm 2 years late on this comment. But I saw them live, and when they played this song, as the big guitar solo was going to kick in, they instead hit the riff from Led Zeppelins Kashmir, and they played that. The crowd lost their minds. It was awesome.

[@markgregory983]

Great band. His voice always reminds me of Jim Morrisons. Fave song is definatly The Bazaar.

[@PrettyFixedStars]

Saw this band many times. The lead singer Jeff Martin is very talented and can play many different, unique instruments. Underrated Canadian band 🇨🇦

[@kyles5513]

This band is incredible. Especially their early stuff from the 90's.

[@Thee_Hooligan]

So many of these Canadian bands like this that came out in the 90's were sadly silenced at the border for no reason at all. It's great to see them getting rediscovered again. This band has so many hood songs.

[@likeforthealgorithm]

Our Lady Piece, I mother Earth and I almost forgot, Matthew Good Band and his solo career are a few of other great Canadian bands that never got any decent US air play

I'm going to have to check out more of this band's catalog. A surprisingly good recommendation from the chat.

[@debbieplato5107]

Check out Sister Awake live Much More Music Toronto 👍

[@jomojojo6603]

This is an amazing, original band. You can skip the first album...it flopped. Couple songs from that album made it to the second album. I'd say 10 awesome songs and 10 more good ones. My joke about The Tea Party is that Jim Morrison came back to life and joined Led Zeppelin.

[@hmpz36911]

@@jomojojo6603 I can see those comparisons. Also, Dio-era Rainbow (circa mid-late 70s) had some of these Middle Eastern type elements, in songs like Gates Of Babylon or Stargazer. Scorpions (same 70s era) used a bit in Sails Of Charon as well. I love these exotic elements in rock/metal and incorporated them into my music as well. I don't know anything about Tea Party, but am very interested in what their influences were.

[@hmpz36911]

@@debbieplato5107 Thanks. I've exhausted the metal bins for decades now and am branching out into all these different directions. Always happy to find a fresh nugget like this.

[@mitchelltyler5972]

You have no idea bro. This is an incredible band.

[@princeofpcos9804]

The entire Splendor Solis album is good. Lots of acoustic guitar, minor keys, Arabic influences.

[@vinceaaron8921]

the bazaar is fantastic by them. another great 3 piece band.

[@danw3735]

Went a saw Tea Party in Melbourne, love them. They are like a cross between the Doors, Led Zeppelin and Pearl Jam.

[@manna6618]

Always sold out when they toured Oz, much loved over here!

[@nickcrisp7252]

I think "Sister Awake" is my favourite from this band. Possibly. Such a great combination of influences in their music. I hear The Doors, Cream, Led Zeppelin.

[@DiZastur]

yep, throw those 3 bands into a blender and sprinkle in a healthy pinch of Grunge...et voila

[@funkymango3427]

The Tea Party were huge in Australia back in the 90s.

Ahh love this band. Great Canadian Rock, in the Doors vibes. 🤘

[@crazeyjoe]

Vocals with vibes of Morrison with Led Zep inspired (for the most part musically.

I absolutely love The Tea Party! Awesome choice! This song has the Egyption "Phrygian" scale to give it an exotic flair.

[@clintoo167]

still can't believe I got them to do this song. I suggested it on their canadian live stream and it actually won the poll. if you want them to do more tea party definitely look for their next canada stream and join in so you can vote for this amazing band.

[@tedcole9936]

Way to go! I co-owned a record/cd/tape store in the 90s in Detroit and we sold a lot of Tea Party! Great track pick from their great first album. Well done, sir!!

[@dfbovey]

One of the best under known bands of the 90s.

[@jeffreekoch9298]

They are good. Like Queen of the Stone Age (QOTSA) and The Doors combined. Kind of psychedelic, alt rock, desert sounding rock. 🎸

[@DiZastur]

yeah, mystical feel, mind you I ordered their title CD from Columbia House and dropped a hit of acid before my first listen...lol

[@FrankCastlesConscience]

In the 90s they had an album Transmission, every song is gold. Its basically: Jim Morrison + Nine Inch Nails + Led Zeppelin. Genius Canadian band and the frontman creates great Egyptian melodies fused with hard rock and interesting lyrical ideas.

[@hellboundrubber4448]

This band ruled in their day. They had a lot of great singles and super unique sound. I think what made the band was people really liked the vocals being reminiscent of Jim Morrison. And the music was a little Led Zep.

[@charlesberton2581]

I discovered the Tea Party in the early 2000s, and I really loved their first three or four albums. It's a three piece, and the singer looks and sounds like Jim Morrison, but he plays guitar like Jimmy Page. Awesome band.

[@mattdemo7173]

I always felt that Jeff Martin was a great singer/songwriter that channeled Jim Morrison on quite a few Tea Party songs, both vocally and lyrically. Highly recommend checking out the songs "Temptation", and "Save Me".

[@deedoublejay]

They put on a great show when I saw them in Windsor a couple of years ago. Sadly, they didn't play this one. It was their breakthrough track and remains my favourite.

[@ragethesystem-zl2tv]

It’s cool to see them dive into Canadian bands. I wonder what they would think of Moist.

[@C4L3D0N]

this is the Tea Party's debut single from their debut album. every album is its own unique beast but so worth a deep dive. the album that follows this is the edges of twilght, desert island scenario EoT is the FIRST disc I grab.

[@alexandermacneil4430]

This song deserves more views! Sick tune!

[@kmvoss]

I grew up hearing these guys on the radio for years. I never heard this however, and it's a banger!

[@michaeldaugette802]

The Tea Party is a great Canadian alternative rock band I first heard them in 1993 on college radio on JSU in Jacksonville, Alabama when I heard this song I immediately thought oh I found me a new band to listen to and yes I did , but the first Album I bought of theirs was Transmission it was a very aggressive vibe on most of the songs ! Temptation by them is a great song the video is well pretty gothic looking but awesome ! Too bad The Tea Party hasn’t gotten the push here in America like they’ve gotten in other countries though !

[@richo2677]

They where loved in Australia as well !

[@michaeldaugette802]

These guys never got their break in the us or overseas but were big here in the north. Great band. Great musicians. Check out fire in the head and bazaar alot of their early stuff was 🔥

[@crazeyjoe]

They picked up a very big following in the land down under as well.

[@manna6618]

Not quite true...always sold out in Oz and had a BIG following in the UK as well. It was the American labels that kept them from success in the US.

[@brendanryan3885]

This is a band of extreme talent and much like RUSH a trio, hard to imagine such sounds comming from only 3 guys...love it! ; )

[@jamison8185]

First time hearing them and I really like! Dude sounds almost exactly like Jim Morrison.

I Mother Earth - "One More Astronaut", Grapes Of Wrath - "Peace Of Mind". I actually knew the bass player from Econoline Crush when they were a thing...I worked with his GF, totally awesome guy.

'White Room' - Cream was sung by bassist/songwriter(with lyricist Pete Brown)Jack Bruce, an unmistakable powerhouse of soul, emotion and expressivity.

I saw Live and The Pixies and Nine Inch Nails with Dave Navarro guesting on guitar. I saw the Pixies faffing around with the Beastie Boys in the countdown to New Year's Day. I saw L7 at these festivals and Snoop Dogg & Jurassic 5. And The Tea Party is the best live popular music act I've seen. Absolutely magical experience.
