Tease

R&B/Funk band formed through a series of groups circa 1976-1979 in Los Angeles. After a break the band got back together for a talent contest by a local radio station. On the panel of judges was Ollie E. Brown, who expressed interest and signed them to Brown Sugar Productions. With a new repertoire, show, and the rebranded name "Tease", Brown presented the group to different labels. By November 1982, Tease had a deal with RCA.
