One of their first gigs was opening Newcastle’s Evolution Emerging Festival, followed by a sold out show for Oxjam. They have received significant press coverage, including an interview with Narc Magazine, Gigs North East, Amazing Radio and NE:MM. Tchotchke have been played on BBC Introducing several times and on alternative radio in the US and Europe.
Tchotchke released their EP, Lost & Found in June’16, which got a lot of interest and positive reviews. Their highly anticipated debut album will be released mid 2018.
They recorded their album at Sage Gateshead, thanks to the PRS Summer Studio funding, they have worked with other musicians, including the local bands and members of Royal Northern Sinfonia, to help develop their sound further.
Reviews "There are elements of Blackflower’s shoegazey style, particularly in the breezy By Heart, with its delightful chorus and a melody that makes you want to sway gently, staring into the distance; but then there’s the twinkly synth and sprawling guitar howl of EP opener 50,000 Miles, where Leon’s soft vocals take a backseat to the nagging guitar lines. Turn Yourself Around’s fuzzy rush of guitar and the epic Blue Monday’s gentle strains of languorous percussion mean that Lost & Found is an eclectic affair, and that may have something to do with the vast array of music he finds inspiration in." – Narc Magazine
“Tchotchke produce gorgeous dream pop that’s brought acclaim from BBC Introducing amongst many others. Having opened this year’s Evolution Emerging on the back of their Lost & Found EP, Tchotchke might just be one of the most promising new bands in the region” – Endless Window
"The local band (Washington, I think) turned plenty of heads at Evolution Emerging with little wonder as they play the kind of inventive indie-rock that you'd be proud to give a home to. This four tracker is simply splendid: from the expansive wide-screen theatrics of 50,000 Miles to the undercooked bliss of By Heart to the garage drone of Turn Yourself Around to the fried lullaby of Blue Monday. They're a band who turn their gaze away from their shoes and up to the stars." – The Crack Magazine.
"Phenomenal new E.P. from this Newcastle, Upon Tyne based project. Opening track "50,000 Miles" is a melodic blast of energetic rock n roll and features one of the best hooks I've heard in sometime. The atmospheric tone of "By Heart" adds a soothing element to the mix while "Turn Yourself Around" is an indie pop banger backed by a powerful beat and captivating chorus. Layers of shimmering synths move with liquid like flow throughout their highly crafted rendition of Neil Young's "I've Been Waiting For You" before giving way to closing number "Blue Monday". No it's not a cover of the New Order classic but a highly textured ambient piece that reminds me of a lost Eno/Lanois collaboration. A unique and inviting E.P. that really sparks my interest and leaves me wanting more." – Custommademusic
