Having recently seen the light of day, Leeds heavy quartet Teller has recently unleashed their debut music video for single Victoria, directed by Zak Pinchin. The track was recorded with their good friend Adam ‘Nolly’ Getgood (Architects, Periphery, Sikth) at Middle Farm Studios. The act was formerly a project of the djent persuasion, but now renamed and renewed and hilst Victoria may be the first track to see the light of day, it is not all the band, comprised of Robin Adams (vocals), Jake Fogarty (drums), Cory Young (bass) and Alex Mauric (guitar), have in their arsenal. Check out the new single below!
We managed to catch up with drummer Jake as he talked about the latest single and more!
So how has the video for Victoria gone down with fans so far?
Our first chapter has gone down a lot better than first anticipated. As a new band and artists, it’s always nerve-racking to let people hear what you’ve slaved hours of creative work onto.
Tell us something about the track no one knows?
It was probably the easiest track to write out of the collection we have currently.
What was your favorite moment recording the video?
Walking around Harrogate with our friend Zoe painted red, was a sight to see.
So will there be more music released this year?
Yes.
If you could work with any band on a new song, who would it be and why?
We’ve had the chance to work with some phenomenal people in the past. But where this band is at now, the producer Dan Lancaster would be interesting, purely to see where he would take our songs.
What’s the live music scene like in Leeds at the moment?
We’ve always enjoyed playing Leeds, it has some great venues and promoters. As well as playing host to one of our favorite festivals, Slam Dunk. There’s not a whole load of Metal bands here, but as far as bands go, Leeds is full of undiscovered talent.
What was the first gig you all attended?
Personally, it was Green Day at Milton Keynes Bowl.
What inspires each and one of you to write and perform music?
It’s a way of venting out the frustrations and troubles of everyday life. It’s also a way to convey a positive message for those who wish to listen.
