BLACK TEA, a new Canadian rock trio from the prairies of Saskatchewan, recorded their debut album in a small log cabin perched on the edge of a valley. Drawing inspiration from the 70s revival of bands like Rival Sons, Marcus King, The Black Crowes, and fellow prairie rockers The Sheepdogs, their music is rich with nods to British and Southern rock royalty, with a heartfelt delivery that is uniquely their own. Their emotionally charged debut album, Now That You’re Here, is a coming-of-age tale of love, loss, growth, and gratitude that will resonate with rock and roll die-hards and casual listeners alike. Their debut single, Living Easy, peaked at #7 (Mediabase) and #9 (Billboard Canada) where it spent 29 weeks on the charts. Their breakout Top 10 hit single will awaken your southern soul and have you bopping along to what has proved to be a certified prairie rock classic.
Gray Farrow (vocals, keys, bass), Cole Van Woert (guitar, vocals), and Dawson Dressler (drums) have been performing together since their early teens, building a strong rapport that only comes from a decade of rock and roll together. The “fellas,” as they refer to each other, have developed a natural chemistry on club and festival stages across the country, supporting some of Canada’s greatest bands. Their energetic live show, packed with blues standards and timeless classics, is a riveting tribute to the greatest music in the rock and roll canon.
