Video: Teen. Circus (Live at Union Pool).



Note the major vintage synth action on this clip, including Korg, Moog, and Sequential Circuits classics.

“Circus” is included on Teen’s new EP, Carolina, out next week from CarparkRecords. Stereogum is premiering Carolina this week by way of an advance stream. Stereogum describes the EP as “five tracks of complex psych-influenced but wholly unique indie pop...Each track exists in its own hyper-detailed, hypnotic space.”


Teen have called their music “psychedelic gospel.” Their debut full-length, In Limbo, released last fall on Carpark, employed the assistance of Spaceman 3’s Peter Kember in mixing and production.

Three of this all-female Brooklyn quartet’s members are sisters: Kristina “Teeny” Lieberson on guitar, keys, and vocals; Lizzie Lieberson on keys and vocals; and Katherine Lieberson on drums and vocals. They are are joined by longtime friend Jane Herships on bass and vocals.
