TEKE::TEKE is a unique and vibrant seven-piece band that hails from Montreal, Canada, known for blending the traditional sounds of Japanese enka music with a twist of psychedelic rock and a punk ethos. The group came together over a shared passion for the experimental and an affinity for Japanese culture, particularly the country's vintage instrumentals from the '60s. Their music breaks cultural and genre boundaries, featuring instruments such as the shinobue (Japanese flute), trombone, and electric guitar to create an otherworldly yet accessible sonic experience.

Since their formation, TEKE::TEKE has been commanding attention with their explosive live performances and their ability to fuse the past with the present in compelling new ways. The band's discography showcases their penchant for crafting songs that are as cerebral as they are emotionally stirring. With releases such as "Hagata," "Barbara," and "Meikyu," TEKE::TEKE takes listeners on a wild musical journey, bridging the gap between the timeless allure of Japanese folk tales and the raw energy of modern alternative music. Their amalgamation of styles has not only captivated listeners but also carved out a unique niche in today's diverse music landscape.
