Episode #1 Tea Leaf Green
San Francisco-based quartet Tea Leaf Green began when drummer Scott Rager met Ben Chambers at San Francisco State as the latter practiced his bass playing on the campus quad, his flowing then-blonde mane billowing in the breeze. The rest, as they say, is history.
Join us for Smell the Glove Episode #1 featuring music by Tea Leaf Green and an in-depth interview with guitarist Josh Clark as he talks about the band's early years and their mid-afternoon set at Bonnaroo this year.
