Trailer: Run Home Slow, The Teskey Brothers 🎸 Jun 11, 2020

"The difficult second album" - Danny Roberts, A&R manager

This season, the story of Run Home Slow, The Teskey Brother's second studio album released 2nd August 2019.

Following the success of their self-produced debut Half Mile Harvest in 2017 the Warrandyte locals quickly garnered attention in Melbourne, Sydney, London, Berlin, New York and Los Angeles.

To repeat the feat will be no easy task.

Told over 6 episodes, we follow their rising star, interest from record labels around the globe, intense recording sessions, creative struggles and sold out shows.

180 Grams is a production of the Mushroom Group

The show's title, 180 grams, comes from the weight of a collector-edition vinyl record.

Something special, to keep, to listen to and hopefully appreciate more than once.

1. I bet they can't do it live 🎤 Jun 22, 2020

Two Teskey Brothers become four (adding Brendon and Liam) as the band emerges from a decade outside Melbourne to sell out city venues.

They release Half Mile Harvest (debut studio album), get some industry attention, sign management and navigate intense label interest as they prepare to record album number two.

Charismatic Englishman Paul Butler is recruited to produce what will become Run Home Slow.

"My first thought was, wow, what a voice what a band. What a groove. I bet they can't do it live" - Jeremy Furze, manager of The Teskey Brothers, after hearing Half Mile Harvest, the first album by The Teskey Brothers.

2. There were loads of hurdles ➿ Jun 29, 2020

An international record producer arrives in Warrandyte and they try to start work but things quickly fall apart; band dynamics, equipment and timeline.

The process is much less like their first album.

They’ve only got 3 weeks, while producer Paul Butler is in Melbourne, to record all the parts.

The band have been so busy in the lead up and they’re not ready when they start.

An assistant engineer is hired - SOREN! - and the process gets underway after a slow start.

3. We used every waking hour 🎼 Jul 06, 2020

It’s hot outside the studio, a cooking cauldron of emotions and sidelined expectations.

Paul Butler must leave in just over a week but at what cost?

As momentum gains the creative differences on the album grow.

There’s no time to spend time on the strings, the backing vocals, the horns.

The Band, Paul and Soren have to use every waking hour.

4. Silence… but everyone was yelling 🎛️ Jul 13, 2020

Feisty WhatsApp messages, a missing bass player, a showdown and another grueling overseas tour.

A band meeting in early January puts the work ahead in perspective.

Then before the month’s out they’re off to tour Europe.

Mixing the tracks, Brendon and Sam still can’t get their ideas to match up.

But labels and the band want the album done.

By April Brendon walks out of Crystal Mastering in Thornbury with the finished album on a CD.
