Music: Going green with Tea Leaf Green

By Brent Thompson

Things are moving so fast for Tea Leaf Green that its collective members should have windburn. Following the release of the 2005 CD Taught To Be Proud, the band took “Song Of The Year” honors for the album’s title track at the 2006 Jammy Awards. Shortly following the success of Taught To Be Proud, director Justin Kreutzmann – son of The Grateful Dead’s Bill Kreutzmann – captured the band on film for the documentary Rock’n'Roll Band. In addition to being released as an audio CD, Rock’n'Roll Band couples live footage with a behind-the-scenes look into the life of an emerging rock band.

Consisting of members Reed Mathis, Josh Clark, Trevor Garrod and Scott Rager, Tea Leaf Green has opened for Bruce Hornsby, Gov’t Mule, Trey Anastasio and the Dave Matthews Band in addition to headlining theatres across the country. The San Francisco-based quartet has sold out shows in major markets including Chicago, Los Angeles, New York and its home base of San Francisco. The band has garnered this national following thanks to superior songwriting and inspired live performances.

Tea Leaf Green will perform at Workplay on Thursday, April 3. Cornmeal will open the 8 p.m. show. Tickets are $15 and can be purchased at www.workplay.com or by calling 380-4082.
