of “Lucid State,” the lead track from Symmetry
Somewhere by Tabah, via Groundsounds!
The five-piece Minneapolis-based band Tabah is often
called out in the local press about its vocalist, Cecelia Erholtz.
The word “Earthy” gets used a lot, and while not inaccurate, it leans into a
place that is actually smaller than what is required to describe her.
Today, in its preview of Tabah’s
hometown show this weekend at St. Paul’s Turf
Club, Minneapolis daily paper the Star-Tribune
accurately noted that “Erholtz’s
husky vocals are a little bit PJ Harvey
and Stevie Nicks.” Pinging two of
the universe’s biggest voices is high praise, to say the least.
As a matter of fact, Erholtz’s “Earthy” vocals communicate
something more universal than what could be attributed to any one planet. They
could be “Jupitery,” or “Saturny,” and even Heavenly on Tabah’s
debut album Symmetry Somewhere, scheduled for release
on March 17th, 2017.

See below for a complete itinerary of upcoming Tabah tour dates. —
Together – and Tabah’s musicians really do sound like they
are playing together – the band takes their music to a unique place where psych-heaviness
and ethereal-wisp combine in a way that hasn’t necessarily been heard like this
before. Consider this: Symmetry Somewhere is a
head-bobbing, mind-bender of an album that was recorded in Nashville, and could
pass for folk in its quieter moments, but is still loud enough to piss off
neighbors.
Recorded live to tape, with minimal overdubs, the band worked tirelessly
during the day at Welcome To 1979 Studios, and then retired to a
cattle ranch just outside of Nashville where they would meet at a gazebo near a
frog pond. That place soon became a temple where the five would find themselves
reflecting, releasing, and crafting closely amongst relaxed moonlight, soft
mornings and Southern thunderstorms.
So far, this special band’s way, and way of working, has made a lot of
sense for epicenter of musical discovery in Minneapolis, 89.3 The
Current, which has consistently supported Tabah since the
band’s first EP release in 2015, including one of its “Best Local Tracks of The
Year” honors. The resultant sell-out crowds at Tabah’s hometown
venue, the famed 7th Street Entry, have only further cemented the
group as a must-see live act in the city; a mystifying, haunting, soulful
experience that will now go national with the release of the new album, and the
tour that launches this evening in Davenport, Iowa at the Daytrotter
Downs festival.
Now that Symmetry Somewhere is completed, the
members of Tabah continue to seek – personally and also
professionally – through their visceral ability to connect in meaningful ways
with their rapidly expanding audience. Now they have the tangible result of
this pursuit. The new album is already in their hands and ears, and soon, in
yours. As for what can’t yet be physically grasped, it’s still waiting for us
to discover. It might be Earthy. It’s definitely out there.
The debut album Symmetry Somewhere by Tabah is
scheduled for release on March 17th, 2017, preceded by the
single “Curtain Call,” streaming now. Members of Tabah
are available for interviews. Contact Josh Bloom
at Fanatic for more information.
