Shake It Off

Teisha's family band with her uncles Jon and David performed under the band named Say Uncle for several years before Teisha helped form Amelia Band.  Jon and Dave found a track recorded on a single track for a radio simulcast of their last live show at The Blue Heron Music Festival.  The song was in the early development stages when the band decided to “throw it out there to see if it would stick” and it did.  It would have been a track on a follow up album that Say Uncle had hopes to someday make. Teisha wrote the lyric and music with help from the guys to arrange and additional music.  Band mates include Glenn Matz, Jeff Simonson, and Matt Zekala.  She sings with a sexy bluesy tone.      Lyrics, music and vocals by Teisha Helgerson   Additional music by members of Say Uncle  Jon Helgerson and David Helgerson     Shake It OffMy world slips I can’t believe my love for youWhen you wake meI feel this tender aching tugAnd can’t shake it off, can’t shake it offYou take me to places almost lostAnd I’m opened up,it hurts me but I can’t get it enoughI can’t shake it off, I can’t shake it offYou steal my every waking thoughtAnd I’m opened upIt hurts me but I can’t get enoughAnd I can’t shake it offI can’t shake you offNo one’s ever seen foreverSo how do they knowNo one ever said they’d never leave me aloneYou’re a preoccupation that I’ve never ever known
