Tank And The Bangas Announce Extensive Run Of Tour Dates
The band’s tour kicks off August 20 in Raleigh, North Carolina.
Best New Artist GRAMMY nominees Tank and The Bangas will take their lauded live shows back on the road this fall. The run of North American dates kicks off in Raleigh on August 20 and includes shows at New York’s Brooklyn Bowl and New Orleans’ Tipitina’s as well as festival appearances at New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, Park City Song Summit 2021, Sea.Hear.Now Festival 2021 and Pilgrimage Music & Cultural Festival 2021.
The band’s latest EP Friend Goals, which is out now on Verve Forecast, continues to receive critical praise. Says The New Yorker, “Lead singer Tank has an elastic, surprising voice that oozes energy, turning simple lyrics into full stories just with a twist of the syllables; perhaps it shouldn’t be so unexpected, given her background as a slam poet.”
The new record includes numerous musical contributions from various friends the band has made throughout their career including CHIKA, Duckwrth, and PJ Morton as well as a number of New Orleans-based creatives.
The EP follows the release of the New Orleans-based band’s major label debut, Green Balloon, which arrived in 2019 to widespread critical praise.
