Sweet Teaze

Sweet Teaze is a hard rock/glam metal band from Detroit, Michigan, USA, that was formed in 1987. Brief history of the band: It was the Summer of 1987 and Dave Press and Ray Eveland crashed my birthday party looking for a singer for their new project. At that time I was a drummer in a Detroit band called Stone White, and the thought of being a front-man was both intriguing and scary. I took them up on their offer and two weeks later I was practicing a bunch of cover tunes. It wasn’t long after that when we started to write are own original music.At that time we were a 5 piece band and our musical styles started to clash. Original bass guitarist Kevin Breselin and rhythm guitar player Rocky Watt had left the project and we began looking for a new bass guitarist. Mike “Snake” Edwards approached us in a club one night and that locked down the Sweet Teaze line-up for the next eight years. Some of the early recordings of the CD “Do it Till it Hurtz” have Rocky Watt doing the backing vocals.For the first three years the band built our following around the Detroit scene. Playing clubs like Harpo’s, The Ritz, New York New York, Blondies, The Token Lounge, Free Spirits, and The 300 Bowl. After playing every club in the Detroit area we decided to shop our music to any label that would listen.
