Singular Voices: Teeks

TEEKS made his entrance with the 2017 debut EP The Grapefruit Skies. It was met with critical acclaim in New Zealand, setting the young artist up for a global career.

Later that year he took home his first Aotearoa Music Award and attracted nominations for the prestigious APRA AMCOS Silver Scrolls Award and the Taite Music prize. In 2021, TEEKS released his critically acclaimed, Platinum-certified album Something To Feel which debuted at #1 on the NZ Chart. The album features Platinum single Remember Me and Gold-selling First Time. In recognition of the album, TEEKS would take home three Aotearoa Music Awards along with Best NZ Act at the MTV EMAs. This moment was followed by a phenomenal sold-out nationwide album tour, which solidified TEEKS as one of the nation’s greats. 

The tour followed a long list of sold-out shows from Aotearoa to the UK while adding to an impressive list of iconic venues to grace – including the Sydney Opera House and Auckland’s Civic Theatre and Spark Arena. 

TEEKS reached new heights in 2022 as his global fanbase formed around him, following viral TikTok success in South Africa where First Time is accredited Gold, and on to achieve a #1 streaming market in the United States. Now with over 1 Billion short-form video views, two Platinum projects, four Platinum singles and four Gold singles to his name, TEEKS has grown from strength to strength, cloaked head to toe in musical alchemy. Dedicating himself to sonically captivating music that is as sincere as it is profound – 3 years following his monumental debut album, TEEKS is set to return with a new body of work on the horizon.
