TEEN

Taking their moniker from a shortened version of frontwoman Teeny Lieberson's name, TEEN incorporates everything from psychedelic rock to '90s R&B into their experimental pop. Their early albums, such as 2012's In Limbo, were sprawling and eclectic, but the band began refining their sound with the romantic, musically and lyrically complex synth pop of 2014's Love Yes. By the time they released 2019's Good Fruit, TEEN had established themselves as a band capable of equally lush and thought-provoking music. Started in 2010 as a solo project of multi-instrumentalist Teeny Lieberson (formerly of Here We Go Magic) -- who made and released TEEN's lo-fi, home-recorded debut, Little Doods, in 2011 -- the band soon included her sisters Lizzie and Katherine. They began crafting a sound in keeping with some of the other thriving styles of the time (girl group-inspired noise pop, pulsating tribal electronics) that also recalled past luminaries such as Galaxie 500 and the Velvet Underground. The band signed to Carpark and enlisted Spacemen 3's Sonic Boom to produce In Limbo, which arrived in August 2012. TEEN returned in April 2014 with The Way and Color, a more focused set of songs that blended inspiration from D'Angelo and Erykah Badu into its psychedelic sounds. When it was time to make their fourth album, the band wrote songs in locations as far-flung as Woodstock, New York, and a cabin in Kentucky, and recorded with producer Daniel Schlett (who also worked with TEEN on The Way and Color) at the Old Confidence Lodge, a secluded studio in Riverport, Nova Scotia. The results became 2016's Love Yes, which deepened The Way and Color's explorations of identity, spirituality, and sensuality. The Lieberson sisters self-produced 2019's Good Fruit, a philosophical set of songs that concentrated on TEEN's joyous synth pop.
