White Wolf is the debut album of the Arizona, USA based band TESKEY. Not to be confused with the Aussie band THE TESKEY BROTHERS, TESKEY are just as authentic for sure, because their album takes us straight back to the late 60s/early 70s psychedelic heavy blues rock/classic rocksound of that era in music history.
They were founded just recently, in 2024, and already in 2025 their first full-length debut CD hits the market. The band consists of Brandon Teskey: Guitar, Lead Vocals, Matt Baldwin: Bass, Peter Murphy: Keyboards and Brandon Gaddy: Drums. The first couple of songs (Under The Sun, Cast Aside Child) are hard hitting uptempo classic bluesy rockers with that psychedelic late 60s/early 70s vibe, and a song like Upside Down World dives heavily into the late 60s British Blues rockworld of especially PETER GREEN’s FLEETWOOD MAC. These guys are doing it at a very high level, writing their own songs in that style, and with a fantastic guitarist who lets his guitar sing, and a vocalist with a raw bluesy tone in his voice, it all makes sense here that TESKEY is a band you want to check out. At times they remind of a cross between CINELLI BROTHERS and IAN SIEGAL, with a sorta ALICE COOPER alike singer (especially when you listen to a strong semi rocker like Don’t Take My Angel or Shadow Side) and a PETER GREEN alike guitarist.
No single weak moment to be found here, and this band could easily hit the European Blues Festival season next year. An appearance at Culemborg Blues or Breda Jazz would bring them the audience they need, because they absolutely deserve it.
