Seven Teller is the art-rock brainchild of Baltimore musician and songwriter Sam Cochran, who started the project in 2021. A blend of funk, dance, and roots music nourishes the band’s unique, immersive sound. During live performances, the group improvises between songs by adding psychedelic textures on top of fun, upbeat rhythms. Their devoted fanbase, called “Teller Family,” travels hours to concerts, so the band tries to make each night feel more spontaneous and special than the last. There are moments too when the whole room becomes connected to the music and it feels like there is no band or audience. Moments like these are what the band strives for. Seven Teller’s new record ‘Jester’ just came out this summer.
“Whether it’s songs like “Ship In The Night,” which seems to deal with depression (“This darkness begins and ends in you,”) the title character, “The Jester,” an absurd stilted character who says “good night” in the day and “good morning” in the night time, or the appropriate band jam titled, “Entourage,” these are all funky-ass tunes to make you dance and to make you think at the same time. They are known for switching it up at shows, so that no show is like another. But that’s the treat of this recorded collection, there’s no filler only killer, with intricate musical breakdowns on keys, bass, and guitar. If you like roots music, funk music, dance music with charm and imagination, they’re doing as good stuff as any other successful band out there. Definitely check this album out and get out to one of their dynamic shows, where the magic really happens.”

“I can’t forget to mention how much our fans mean to us… A portion of them are people who know us personally or knew us from the start. They are people who have fed us and given us beds to sleep in on the road. They are the folks we can always count on coming to our shows, or they help do street promo for the gig. We call them “Teller Family” because we like to think that we all treat each other like family in the band and the audience. There aren’t any lines between us… There are so many great things happening in the scene and it feels like something special.”
