Tae + The Neighborly
Tae & The Neighborly, a Wisconsin based Soul-pop R&B group, found themselves playing
music together in a very unconventional way. They were all neighbors, each one living alone on
one floor of a five-story flat. Cake baking is a shared passion of the five member group, but in
the sugar shortages early in the 2020 pandemic, they found themselves so continually knocking
on each other's doors asking for a single cup of sugar that a group decision was made to all
move in together and share cake-baking resources. And since everyone knows all good
rhythms begin in the kitchen, it wasn’t before long that the group began to write and perform
together across the nation. Critics hail the group as “having more kick than a bagged-up mule”
(Rotary Times) and their live show “...going down smoother than a can of [beans] warmed on
the campfire” (Cowboy Gazette).
