TRANSCRIPT
A real summer haze BBC Radio 1“”
A non-manic flavour of psychedelia, the colourful, jaunty sort that feels confident enough to swagger and playful enough to grin. The majority of their tracks contain ‘world music’ vibes, which
completely makes sense considering the members are from all edges of Europe. Morrison-sexy meets The Kooks, Frisky meets The Rolling Stones personality.
“”The Wild Honey Pie
I’m experiencing the comparable fiery magic that good music can have when it takes hold of
your body and soul.
“”Earmilk
The band don’t take themselves too seriously even if their music oozes sophistication.
“”Artrocker
The Brighton group keep things direct, with their folk-drenched songs harking back to late
60s types such as Blind Faith or The Band.
Clash“” On this night, the Bay Area crowd was treated to the
psychedelic, folky charm of Tiago Saga, front man of British band Time for T. The crowd’s eyes never
wavered, even as he tuned the guitar mid-set and disclosed his affinity for tacos in between songs.
“”San Francisco Chronicle
TIME FOR T began carving their unique sound in the musical centrifuge that is Brighton, southern England in 2013. However, Brighton was just the meeting point for a band comprised of many different nationalities and musical influences. Portuguese, English, Spanish and Swiss natives all come together within this group, a defining factor of why their music travels through a cocktail of tropical, psychedelic, indie and rock coupled with lyrics that provide tangible stories, experiences, poignant thoughts and photographic vividness from frontman Tiago Saga.
The band are influenced by a wide range of genres from Britsh Folk to American Psychedelia and Brazilian Tropicalia and Samba to African Desert Blues. All this comes together to create their own brand of music that has taken the band all across Europe, as far east as Beirut and as far west as America and South America where lead singer Tiago Saga has played solo shows to captivated audiences.

PAST FESTIVALS
Having self produced their debut album at Spitfire Audio Studios throughout 2016, the band explored sounds and ideas throughout those London nights to the point where they would leave the studio in the early mornings completely disconnected from the everyday hustle and bustle of a capital city only to return to their creative bubble the next night to finalise or scrap an idea from the previous sleepless night. With the help and mastering of JJ Golden (Devendra Banhart, Rodrigo Amarante etc) on the other side of the Atlantic in Ventura, California,
the album came together to become a fluid piece of work that explores all genres but is united by the same soundscape.
Three singles from the album were released before the album with ‘Tom Tom’ being played on BBC Radio 1, ‘Rescue Plane’ reaching number 1 in the Spotify UK Viral Charts as well as getting airplay across Portugal, England, USA and Germany and ‘Wax’ aired on BBC 6 Music (UK) and Antena 3 (Portugal) creating great anticipation for the full release. To celebrate the debut release, the group toured extensively through
Europe to present, first hand, their first real body of work and capture audiences both familiar and new.
