Tea and Symphony


Tea and Symphony was a British musical group of the late 1960s and early 1970s whose style may be described as "progressive folk". From Birmingham, they recorded two albums for Harvest Records, had one track, "Maybe My Mind ", included on the Harvest sampler Picnic - A Breath of Fresh Air, toured Britain with Bakerloo and were guests on John Peel's BBC radio programme.
The group was generally a trio, though sometimes supplemented by extra musicians. Members included Jeff Daw, James Langston, Nigel Phillips, Jonathan Benyon, Dave Carroll, Bob Wilson, Peter 'Chatters' Chatfield, Tom Bennison, Mick Barker, and Stewart Johnson. Steve Eaves is another former alumnus.
They were one of the earliest bands to have their own dedicated light show, one of which was Ephemera Lights
