Teneia

If you’re not currently feeling like life is pretty glorious and everything’s going to work out okay, then I suggest going over to your favorite music store (or mine) and listening to Teneia until you get your head right. Because I defy you to hear their post-modern-retro mix of folk-soul-blues-pop (po-mo-tro fo-so-blu-po?) without getting a smile on your face.

This wife-and-husband duo is theoretically based out of Jackson, Mississippi, but they’ve spent most of the last year traveling the country in their big ol’ trailer, playing powerful songs, and spreading their message of love and equality. I’m honored that they chose us as their Memphis stop on this important mission.
