Writing on "Velorio" and shows


Here are some choice samples from reviews of our album "Velorio," including links to the full reviews in case you would like to read them.   

"People who listen to music purely for entertainment, looking for the quick, tuneful ear candy fix, will certainly run screaming from Teething Veils. But for those who like to dissect every moment of an album, nearly trying to get inside the songwriter's head and see how they perceive the world, this is nothing short of fascinating."

Twenty-One


We're home from our travels. The "Velorio" tour consisted of 17 shows in 21 days. We kept a journal on our "Teething Veils Twenty-One" blog, and have updated the page with the last entries. Each day on the road corresponds with a song from our album. Scroll to the very end to read from start to finish: http://teethingveilstwentyone.tumblr.com/
