The Brothers are from Melbourne, Australia. The problem with the music industry today is that they want what appeals to pop and comes through the TV talent shows. These boys played pubs and small gigs for a long time, Every country has hidden gems Like the Teskey's because they start as an underground movement in their local areas.
I discovered The Teskey Brothers a few years ago and I’m so glad they are getting their recognition now. Josh Teskey to me is Otis Redding, Joe Cocker and Sam Cooke reincarnated into one Australian white guy.
@carpediem4887 He's better than Otis didn't didn't put that much control like this man. That's hard for me to say. I have alot of Otis music this is the music I was raised on.
A cross between Otis Redding and Joe Cocker with a dash of St. Paul and the Broken Bones (Paul Janeway). What a voice, what a song! Can a voice get any more soul into it than that? Beautiful reaction. Can't wait for the Teski Bros to come my way on tour.
gosh dam.... what a voice! WOW... this is what i love about youtube... about music.. finding them gems! this is definitely GOLD. what a song man... i found another new favorite sad slow ballad love song of a broken heart. these lyrics are great and man you can feel the pain n the emotion bc of his voice and its expression. this is what i call great soul music. this song could be done real good with just 1 acoustic guitar.... but boy ya better b able to sing like this or it probably wont sound right, but then again some songs you just dont mess with and really to b truthful this is 1 of them. absolutely perfectly done.
Check out their song Hold Me (Live at the Forum) - it'll blow your mind! It's one of those gems that goes straight on everyone's playlist when they hear it 😊
Hello Asia & BJ 🥰 This song is actually Josh Teskey solo w/o his brother. This is my absolute fav by him/them. He a vanilla Otis Redding.😍 My favorite of theirs is “Forever You and Me”. Perfect wedding first dance song. 💘
My daughters boyfriend suggested this artist.... I had never heard of them. How is that possible to be this talented with such limited exposure? Most of my favorite bands came by way of suggestions from friends and family; Of Monsters and Men, Alabama Shakes, Chris Stapleton, Fleet Foxes, Marcus King, Mark Broussard, Jack Johnson, Khruangbin, and Leon Bridges are but a few. Finding bands like these keeps me constantly looking at new artists in hopes a few of them are able to connect with me. I get so damned excited when I find one.......makes this 65 year-old body feel like 21 again!
@Glenn Burch have you heard of John Farnham , Cold Chisel lead singer, is JimmyBarnes (eventually went solo) still cranking out music in his 60's, Johnny Diesel (who happensto be Jimmy's brother-in-law)? They are all Australian icons.
@@glennburch1081 all the bands you named are all bands I love as well!! Most of those bands have outstanding lead singers!! Those bands would much rather stay true to their own music instead of getting super famous doing pop crap!! Do it for the love of the music not the frame!!
I can listen to this song by Josh Teskey again and again. The meaning of this song hits my soul and brings tears to my eyes. This was like hearing Otis Redding singing from Stax Records in the mid 1960's. Then find out the Teskey Brothers wrote this song in 2019. Another song you would love to hear will blow your mind is "Iron Sky" Abbey Road Live Session by Paolo Nutini (2013).
What a pleasant surprise! Been requesting this on your channel for some time, mostly on the livestreams but better late than never haha. 8:22 This is a Teskey Brothers original written song, sounds reminiscent of Otis Redding “These Arms of Mine” with a bit of Joe Cocker thrown in as someone mentioned in the comments section earlier. So, the video only features lead singer Josh Teskey but the rest of the band is his brother, Sam Teskey the lead guitarist hence the Teskey Brothers (only 2 of the brothers in the band lol) then you have their friends, Liam Gough on drums and Brendon Love on bass plus their horns & keys section as well. For another unique voice from Australia, check out _”Miracle Love” (Live At Manchester Cathedral)_ by *Matt Corby* , he’s soooo good 👍🏾.
I was shocked and so happy that you all were reacting to this song. Someone else reacted to this 2yrs. ago, and I was hooked on this song every since then.
And another lesser known voice that I’ll put up there with Teskey is Paul Janeway of St Paul & the Broken Bones, you should check out “Grass is Greener (OurVinyl Session)”, you’ll be equally as stunned…actually, probably much more stunned lol. You won’t believe the voice that comes out of this dude.
I love the look of amazement and confusion at the same time when people first watch the Teskey Bros. They have soooo many amazing songs, please check out silver moon, hold me, crying shame, pain and misery etc
Yeah guys, Josh Teskey's voice is subliminal. The band is spot on, there's so much to look & enjoy. Pick Paint My Heart or Pain & Misery. Mind you, if you want gospel go Hold Me. Great reaction 👍🤘🙂🙂❤
It's that Motown sound for sure. They like to record on old analog equipment. No digital. Even the chord progressions are very reminiscent of that old 60's Motown soul sound.
I close my eyes to absorb the music and the emotional connection. When I’m listening and feeling this song, I feel pain as it would come from a tragedy, like a mans having a confession about how he hurts so deeply knowing how others struggle with being alone as if he is living that right now.
You are born with the voice you sing with but the heart and soul of a singer isn’t just a performance it’s an experience/communication between the performer and the audience. Some of us can’t sing in tune but we feel that “great” voice not just in our hearts but on a cellular level. This voice, Josh’s voice is akin to all the great singers I have been listening to since the 1950’s. And in Australia we have never ever cared what colour your skin was … if you had a voice that appealed to us, we loved you. I grew up listening to Bessie Smith and have never forgotten the line “I’m a steamroller baby and I’m gunna roll all over you”. My friend’s older brother playing Harry Belafonte, Ray Charles, Billie Holiday, Louis Armstrong etc, it’s no wonder we adored Jimi Hendrix, Otis Redding, Stevie Wonder, Tina Turner, B.B. and so many more singers of every colour with soul in their voices and I haven’t forgotten singers like Joe Cocker, the Righteous Brothers and Rod Stewart among others who have inspired Australian talent. 70+ years, a lifetime of ❤️ everything from opera to heavy rock, but soul is where I always close my eyes and feel not just the music but the words.
The first time I heard this it was literally revolutionary for me... Even his "missed" notes are genius. Even adding to the character of the message. Listen to the studio versions like you do with other artists... I HIGHLY recommend Pain and Misery, Carry You, Hold me, and So Caught Up as well.
So Caught Up is a great song. My daughter introduced me to this Australian band a couple of years ago. She sent me the song and said I think you’ll like this song. She was right!
The Teskeys are amazing. Please check out Pain and Misery bt them well! That whole album is 🔥! Another band I started to listen to around the same time is Black Pumas. They have since become popular with their song Colors but my recommendation is the song October 33!
As someone said in another reaction video he has that voice you can't sing happy songs too. It's all gotta be blues and you should check out another hit called say you'll do, Also pain and misery and I get up but the version with bahamas who is a phenomenal guitarplayer from toronto canada❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks for this ... if you are going to do growling and wailing Aussie soul/blues artists you need to get some Jimmy Barnes on your plate. Try Jimmy Barnes featuring Joe Bonamassa on Stone Cold (official video).

Warrandyte boys made good.
City and Color is/was exactly that kind of hidden gem, I think from Canada
Good. Don't want these lot to sell their souls and get their souls and music effected
Well said.
Boys from Australia doing it right.... Yes they are Australian...
I discovered The Teskey Brothers a few years ago and I’m so glad they are getting their recognition now. Josh Teskey to me is Otis Redding, Joe Cocker and Sam Cooke reincarnated into one Australian white guy.
I agree he’s got that Otis Redding vibes so scary
He is an Otis Redding impersonator basically
And Ray Charles.
Otis would be proud. He reminds me of Joe tex too. Roy C I could go on and on. This music is my favorite type of music period.
@carpediem4887 He's better than Otis didn't didn't put that much control like this man. That's hard for me to say. I have alot of Otis music this is the music I was raised on.
Soul, that's the genre you were looking for. Blues and soul.
I have never heard this man. I definitely will be listening to him again!!💕💕
He’s an absolute beast!! I found them about a year ago!! Love them!!
A cross between Otis Redding and Joe Cocker with a dash of St. Paul and the Broken Bones (Paul Janeway). What a voice, what a song! Can a voice get any more soul into it than that? Beautiful reaction. Can't wait for the Teski Bros to come my way on tour.
Love all the bands you listed and the Teskeys! I'll Be Your Woman by St. Paul and the Broken Bones is amazing!
@@BaLLeRJ06I love Burning Rome by them too. They are great live and so are the Teskey Brothers.
Grass is greener and broken bones and pocket change are fuckin epic as well
You would never have guessed that the great Soul Brother Otis Redding was reincarnated as an Aussie bloke.
LOL
Just like him?
Facts Jack. But, I’m here for it. ❤
😂

Hell Yeah, brings a "hallelujah" feeling, don't it?
The ultimate instrument, human voice....
I've not heard of the Teskey Brothers but this song and his voice are fire.
Never heard this...its GREAT!
Check out their song Hold Me (Live at the Forum) - it'll blow your mind!

Do you know Electric Six - GayBar?

I love the look of confusion on Asia's face. The Teskey Brothers are my jam.....best group you have never heard of.

SOUL comes in All Colors!
It's not what's on the outside. It's what on the inside ❤😂❤ Peace & More LOVE...
Hold On (Live at the Forum) is a must view. See what great performers they are.
Thunder from Down Under .... OMG. Asia's face! I nearly died when I heard this man sing.

Australian Soul
Listen to Crying Shame by the Teskey Brothers.
Yeah, Hold Me (Live at the Forum) is a must. You get to hear the whole band and see what great performers they are. Talk about audience interaction!
I second that!
It's one of my fave performances of theirs 🔥 🔥 🔥
I love The Teskey Brothers. Their other music is definitely worth checking out
They are incredible live. They received one of the highest music honors in Australia this year. May want to check out Louis Baker as well.
What a pleasant surprise! Been requesting this on your channel for some time, mostly on the livestreams but better late than never haha.

He sounds like Ottis Redding and Wilson Pickett ❤. I love great Motown music ❤
The cracks in his voice make him sound more soulful
Yes, Natural magic ❤❤❤
They are from Australia. You gotta check out Australian legends jimmy Barnes and John Farnham “when something is wrong with my baby”
Hold On (Live at the Fillmore) is another by them you absolutely have to check out, talk about having a fantastic fan experience!
Hold me, live at the Forum?
Thanks for introducing me to the Teskey Brothers. He has that Percy Sledge vibe
Whoa!!! I know this!!! YES. Didn't know who sang it. I thought Otis Redding.
Wow!!! Love his voice💯❤ I've never heard him before or the song but WOW💖

I was shocked and so happy that you all were reacting to this song. Someone else reacted to this 2yrs. ago, and I was hooked on this song every since then.
Evan....who is he?!!🔥
@@michaelasay8587 The singer is Josh Teskey, the lead singer of the Teskey Brothers.
The EM of soul.
First time hearing the Teskey Brothers his voice reminds me of Ottis Redding absolutely stunning voice.
And another lesser known voice that I’ll put up there with Teskey is Paul Janeway of St Paul & the Broken Bones, you should check out “Grass is Greener (OurVinyl Session)”, you’ll be equally as stunned…actually, probably much more stunned lol. You won’t believe the voice that comes out of this dude.
A definite must.
I gave them a listen and immediately added to a playlist. Thanks for the recommendation
Music doesn't care about the Color of Your Skin. IT'S ALL ABOUT WHATS INSIDE? SOUL!
I love the look of amazement and confusion at the same time when people first watch the Teskey Bros. They have soooo many amazing songs, please check out silver moon, hold me, crying shame, pain and misery etc
OMG!!! My new favorite group. It reminds me of music I would listen and dance to way back in my '60s teenage years!! Amazing!!!!!!
Tears. Every. Time. 🔥
As a Big Time Otis Redding and Stax Records Fan since I was young, this is the guy and his band that makes me feel that all over again.
Wow soul song alot of Joe Cocker in hes voice and Ray Charles thanks guys
I thought it was Otis Redding and when I looked at the screen and saw him I got goosebumps...this man laid it all out...I can't stop replaying it
That was nice. Never heard it before. Thank you
Ya'll had the same reaction as I did. Instant goosebumps. And tears... 😢
The teskey Brothers are awesome!! And soooo many good songs! Omg, I love them!!
First experience hearing this band.
Ok, his voice is freaken mighty and powerful.
AWESOME!!!
💃💃☘️☘️
I love their music! So beautiful!
This boy has done his damn homework when it comes to having soul!
Lot's of great talent from us Aussie's, thanks for sharing it.
Yeah guys, Josh Teskey's voice is subliminal. The band is spot on, there's so much to look & enjoy. Pick Paint My Heart or Pain & Misery. Mind you, if you want gospel go Hold Me. Great reaction 👍🤘🙂🙂❤
This guy is like Otis Redding.......FANTASTIC!!!
Yes Tesky brothers are so great
Love your reaction to The Teskey Brothers ,Carry you PLEASE reaction to it. Every thing they sing is great
It's that Motown sound for sure. They like to record on old analog equipment. No digital. Even the chord progressions are very reminiscent of that old 60's Motown soul sound.

Welcome to Australia. We’re glad to have you.
This guy can sing… his voice is unbelievable
I have to say it both yo are my favourite reactions presenters. 100%
that voice, that song makes time stand still...wow
Damn this man can fricken sing the Blues, never heard this group before but I’m hooked
Absolute killers John. That voice could woo anyone! 😂👍👍
Great Australian band. Believe it or not!
60’s soul all day. They are huge Donny Hathaway fans. Try So caught up, Hold me, Sunshine baby.

He hit the notes exactly as he intended that is a deliberate sound when he goes high and you hear the break that is deliberate.
He is Soulful!
Tesky bros has many more connecting sounds. Rain is just one of the many.
The first time I heard this it was literally revolutionary for me... Even his "missed" notes are genius. Even adding to the character of the message. Listen to the studio versions like you do with other artists... I HIGHLY recommend Pain and Misery, Carry You, Hold me, and So Caught Up as well.
Wow, I hear a lot of Ray Charles in his voice. His voice is not original but it’s sounds great.
This dumbass here😂😂😂
You should hear him sing drown in my own tears unreal
He has the voice that can cover Allman brothers songs
He's singing on his own, about being alone, hence the film clip. Go hard my Aussie bro.
your guys faces lol ... he does have some soul it hits you outta nowhere. him and marcus king and a few others
If you like that then the Teskeys doing “Paint My Heart” is brilliant as well.
So Caught Up is a great song. My daughter introduced me to this Australian band a couple of years ago. She sent me the song and said I think you’ll like this song. She was right!
Australian talent is neglected and ignored by so much of the world.
Cheers and thanks!
Crying shame is another great song by them
The Teskeys are amazing. Please check out Pain and Misery bt them well! That whole album is 🔥! Another band I started to listen to around the same time is Black Pumas. They have since become popular with their song Colors but my recommendation is the song October 33!

He actually can hit notes, you should watch him and Delta Goodrem doing the cover of INXS “Never Tear Us Apart” live. It’s AMAZING!
Teskey brothers pain & misery ... soul music at its finest.
This is my first song I heard by them probably two years ago and it is off the chart amazing they have so many bangers❤❤❤❤❤
That voice, didn't know but glad I do now.🤔👍
Wow. Brilliant. Never heard of them. My bad.
Most beautiful couple EVER!!💗
You children are too young to remember Mr Otis Redding 😢 This is so much like His SOUND‼️
First thing that came up in my mind was Ois Redding. I prefer Ois, but i liked the song 👍🏻
Been waiting for you guys to discover our Australian talent , check out Matt Corbys Brother. Love your reactions xx
Discovering the channel "COLORS"
he sounds like the great otis redding
Man, I hear and see a lot, lot, of Joe Cocker here.
Mix between Joe and Otis
Love this band! for sure check out Hold me Live at the forum and the song Carry You
Thor got the soul stone.
A white Otis Redding.
The late great otis redding
i love seeing you 2 and you need to hear this one pls The Good, the Bad and the Ugly - The Danish National Symphony Orchestra (Live)
AWESOME!!!!
That was what music is supposed to be. It moves you and makes you feeeeeelllllll the song. Otis would be proud.
Well, my into to The Teskey Bros was on my Pandora Robert Cray Blues station....Pain and Misery. I thought Otis had come back from the grave.
Wow! Oh wow. I am in love.
THE TESKEY BROTHERS - PAINTED HEART
"Pain and Misery' you all under estimate music from other countries - they are a current band but there is so much more
Thanks for this ... if you are going to do growling and wailing Aussie soul/blues artists you need to get some Jimmy Barnes on your plate. Try Jimmy Barnes featuring Joe Bonamassa on Stone Cold (official video).
