 TEAZE are from Windsor, Canada. There was something almost un-Canadian about the evangelical fervour that TEAZE displayed. Brian Danter sang ‘til it hurt. Mark Bradac and Chuck Price invented slam dancing (and that was while playing their guitars). Mike Kozak,  who never let his drum kit get in the way of self-expression, regularly went screaming off the stage to be closer to his audience. It was three or four shows in one and nobody had a label for it.

 The first TEAZE album was recorded in 1976 at a facility near Toronto called The Grange. The band thought they were taping demos, but an LP called “TEAZE” was released. It ultimately went on to sell more copies in Sweden than Canada. After that, TEAZE was signed  by Aquarius Records and the band moved to Montreal. In late 1977 they made an album called “ON THE LOOSE” with producer George Lagios. They began to gain a following and the next album marked a night of firsts. It was the first show outside of Canada. It was  their first outing as a concert headliner. It was their first live album, “TOUR OF JAPAN.”

 The band was growing in popularity. A deal was signed with Capitol in the U.S. At last, TEAZE would be on sale “up North” in Detroit. “ONE NIGHT STANDS” needed to be a great album. It was, it was TEAZE’s finest work. The performance was passionate. The music  was powerful. The lyrics were lucid and clever. Producer Myles Goodwyn helped the band weave together all of their disparate elements. “ONE NIGHT STANDS” included the band’s most memorable songs, “HEARTLESS WORLD” and “YOUNG AND RECKLESS”.

 TEAZE’s fifth and final album, “BODY SHOTS” was a strong effort but at some point, between their first and last recording the members of TEAZE had lost their brashness. The fourth LP indicated that their best might not be good enough. Getting released from  their U.S. deal proved to be a decisive blow and the band fragmented within six months of the release of “BODY SHOTS.”

 Perhaps TEAZE was ahead of its time. It could be they were misunderstood. The five albums back then constitute a legacy. As it turns out the Legacy is far from over…

 Over time the various band members went their own ways but then a get together at a local restaurant would end with everyone on board to attempt the most unlikely 39-year reunion. So there was a TEAZE RESURRECTION show at Windsor’s Walkerville Theatre. The  theatre, filled with family, friends and fans from across Canada, enjoyed the first TEAZE show since 1980. This led to another live show and subsequent CD release “Live at Liege” and this fantastic recording was released on Escape in 2025 (ESM403).

 So, what next? – A new studio Teaze album!! It’s 2026, 50 years after the debut… and they have recorded an album that proves these Canadians are far from done..it’s like they have never been away! Classic riffs and memorable hooks, it’s a dream come true… and  time to “Rev your Engines” !!
