The ground started shaking up in Sacramento, CA, in 1984 gold country that would soon be producing some platinum. The same roots that produced bands like The Allman Brothers, Grand Funk Railroad, AC/DC, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and Aerosmith. Their bluesy, soulful sound is strongly embedded in the roots of organic, authentic, 1970s rock and roll. TESLA may have been born in the mid 80s eruption of leather, spandex, and big hair, but this band has never been about those things. That they are still roaring and soaring should be no surprise.
