TEED


Orlando Tobias Edward Higginbottom, known professionally as TEED is a British electronic music producer, DJ and singer-songwriter based in the United States.

Early life

Orlando is the son of Professor Edward Higginbottom, formerly conductor of the choir of New College, Oxford. He was educated at Abingdon School and Cherwell School, Oxford. A classically trained musician, he attended the Junior Royal Academy of Music in London. Orlando began listening to electronic music in his early teens, through borrowing audio tapes from his older siblings.
Orlando commented to Spin that he was looking for a name that "couldn't be cool, couldn't be put into some kind of scene that gets hip for six months and then falls out of fashion."

Musical career

On 11 June 2012, TEED's debut album Trouble was released by Polydor Records. The album was well received, with favourable reviews from several well-respected music publications including the NME, Pitchfork and the BBC. Trouble was named by iTunes UK as their 'Debut Electronic album of the year', it was DJ Magazines 'album of the year' and was number 5 in the BBC's end of year album poll.
Trouble was also voted 'Best Album' in DJ Magazines Best of British 2012, with TEED also picking up the award for 'Best Live Act'.
On 8 July 2013, Crosstown Rebels released Get Lost VI, a compilation of music curated and mixed by TEED. Get Lost VI featured tracks from Underground Resistance, Tiga, Breach, , Axel Boman, , and more. It was voted 'Best Compilation' in DJ Magazines Best of British 2013.
On 14 August 2014, TEED launched Nice Age, a cross-platform label. The first release, "Feels Like", is a collaboration between TEED and Anna Lunoe.
TEED released an EP titled The Distance in 2021.
On 30 March 2022, TEED announced his second album When the Lights Go, which was supposed to be released on 22 July 2022, but was delayed until 9 September 2022 and was released on his own label, Nice Age.
