On Friday 4/3 at 10PM ET Dr. Cosmo and “Nocturnal Transmissions” welcome Philly/NJ prog rockers the Tea Club!
Intensely punkish and atmospheric lyricism stitched with dramatic shifts and structured intentionality is the cloth of progressive rock from which this band is made. Rather than recycling the old prog themes, The Tea Club forges new paths and creates a sound that is immediate and urgent.
