Tek, Deniz
Long Before Day
Long Before Day is the new full length LP on Wild Honey Records from Deniz Tek, co-founder and chief songwriter of the
Australian iconic band Radio Birdman and prolific solo artist.
The new album features Denizs vocals and signature guitar playing, complemented and interlaced with the guitar work of
Anne Tek. The hard driving rhythm engine of veteran Bob Brown on bass and Keith Streng (from The Fleshtones) on drums
provide a rock steady foundation, with "roll" included. The twelve all new and original songs cover a wide spectrum of
tempo and emotion. Taking One For The Team evokes Exile period Stones. Truck and Roll channels Chuck Berry. Speak of Ice
is an introspective dreamscape inspired by fourteenth century Persian
poetry and Howlin Wolf. Aint Gonna (Stand for That) is a revolutionary anthem. Where is a soulful reckoning that the
hour is late. Recorded on tape, Long Before Day evokes vintage sonic values. Old-school recording techniques bring
spontaneity and a genuine live feel to the sessions. Long Before Day will certainly satisfy diehard fans of Denizs
guitar work, but also extends the art form in new and unexpected directions. It will find many new listeners among those
who care for uncompromising authenticity.
For fans of: Radio Birdman, 13th Floor Elevators, The Rolling Stones.
