BIOGRAPHY

Teiger are a modern prog trio from London, UK. With a sound meandering through quiet metal and bright acoustic rock, Teiger create a rich and melancholic atmosphere that’s both fragile and occasionally furious. With an intriguing peace treaty between metal, alternative rock and psychedelia, Teiger (pronounced “tiger”) are wilfully hard to pin down. Combining a soft-metal aesthetic with elements of early 70s prog without being indulgent or overblown, the trio’s ethereal, shadowy sound is tinged with playful ferocity. “Where so many bands would find a distortion pedal to stomp on to create drama, Teiger are able to compose drama and intensity using harmony and dynamic contrasts alone.” - Invicta Magazine. No genre title describes Teiger’s haunting, imaginative landscape exactly.

The band’s eponymous debut album was launched at The London Underworld on September 8th 2023, to critical acclaim. Produced in Wales by Teiger and Mike Bew at Foel Studio (Porcupine Tree, Dresden Dolls, The Wildhearts, etc.), the album was then mastered in Sweden by David Castillo (Opeth, Katatonia, etc.).

With features from Prog Magazine, BBC Introducing and BBC Radio 6, the band are confirmed for a number of festivals in 2025. Their second album is in early stages of production, with the first single ‘Chalkduster’ scheduled for release in late Autumn this year.
