“Every time I make an album I swear it’s going to be a quick, easy, straightforward affair, but that doesn’t ever seem to happen,” says Jess Cornelius.
“When I came back from the USA at the end of 2012, I had a bunch of new songs that I’d written for the tour, and somehow thedemos turned into the beginning of this new album, although it would take an entire year before we got close to finishing it”.That labour of love became GRIDS, released on March 21st via Dot Dash / Remote Control and described by Stack Magazine as a ‘modern pop masterwork’. It was quickly named Album of the Week by 3RRRfm, ABC Dig Music (now Double J), RTRfm and Beat Magazine, and awarded four stars by the HIT (Herald Sun) and The Music.Now Teeth & Tongue brings her full band to the party, performing GRIDS in all its multi-layered glory. Featuring Marc Regueiro-Mckelvie (guitar and synth), Damian Sullivan (bass and synth), James Harvey (drums and vocals) and Jade McInally (vocals and percussion), the band’s recent dance-heavy performances at Boogie Festival, White Night and a sold-out ‘Newborn’ release party have established Teeth & Tongue as much more than a solo act.With two USA tours (including SXSW and CMJ), Laneway Festival and Falls Festival, and performances with J Mascis, EMA and Vance Joy under her belt, Teeth & Tongue takes to the road again with an 8-date Australian tour to celebrate the release of GRIDS.
