SUMMARY:TAE & the Neighborly
DESCRIPTION:TAE & the Neighborly \nEarly Show | $75 Main Room Seating – $30 Bar Seating \nHailing from Green Bay\, Wisconsin\, TAE & The Neighborly seamlessly blends the best of soul\, R&B\, pop\, and rock through vibrant instrumentation and TAE’s unforgettable vocals. \nThe band released their debut full-length record\, Self Help\, in 2024\, showcasing lyrics and soul-inspired arrangements that shed the malaise of a world that grows ever more grim for the places of joy that are never more than a mindset away. New listeners invariably latch on to the depth of TAE’s singular voice\, demonstrating a remarkable breadth of emotional highs and lows from the smoky speakeasy allure of “Carry On” to the gut-punching climactic peak of “Let It Rain”. \nHaving toured continuously since the release of Self Help\, the band has already in 2025 graced stages from the beloved “Shitty Barn” in rural Wisconsin to the revered halls of the Kennedy Center for the Arts in Washington DC. Highlights yet to come for this year include performances at the Rochester Jazz Festival\, Rhythm & Roots\, People Fest\, Mile of Music\, Sisters Folk Festival\, NPR Mountain Stage\, and more! \nIf you are looking for a slice from the layer cake of self lovin’\, soul searchin’\, and world changin’\, meet them where the music is made to be shared. \nLISTEN TO TAE & THE NEIGHBORLY
