TAUK has an entrancing way of creating evocative instrumental soundscapes and wondrous tension-and-release jams. Their creations of “cerebral funk” inspire both enthralled headphone listening and sweaty, joyous dance floor exultations. The four different musical personalities of the bandmates conceptually collide to create an intoxicatingly potent musical brew. The recipe includes triumphantly soaring guitar melodies, devilishly creative drumming, lithe keyboard fills and bass lines so buoyant they seem to effortlessly bob and weave around song structures.
This distinct musical footprint coupled with tireless touring have built a dedicated and loyal fanbase for TAUK, and inspired the release of the band’s first live album HEADROOM, a jaw-dropping testament to the young group’s already masterful live show. Jalbert described the group’s decision to drop a live album at this early juncture in the band’s career: “We’ve created an identity and we want to capture these moments and share this stage of our evolution. It felt like the right time considering the amazing year we’ve been having.”
