Two Teskey Brothers become four (adding Brendon and Liam) as the band emerges from a decade outside Melbourne to sell out city venues.

They release Half Mile Harvest (debut studio album), get some industry attention, sign management and navigate intense label interest as they prepare to record album number two.

Charismatic Englishman Paul Butler is recruited to produce what will become Run Home Slow.

"My first thought was, wow, what a voice what a band. What a groove. I bet they can't do it live" - Jeremy Furze, manager of The Teskey Brothers, after hearing Half Mile Harvest, the first album by The Teskey Brothers.
