Tank and the Bangas have long challenged the boundaries between musical styles, creating performances that feel spry yet soft. Their music draws from the rhythms and traditions of New Orleans while reaching freely across genres, and their collaboration with the LPO offers another dimension to that musical language.
Fresh from the release of their new album, The Last Balloon, Tank and the Bangas are currently on tour, bringing their blend of soul, hip-hop, and spoken word to audiences around the world. On October 2, they return home.
Joining Tank and the Bangas is Dawn Richard, whose work as a singer, songwriter, producer, and performer has made her one of the most distinctive voices to emerge from New Orleans. Her music similarly moves between genres and traditions, connecting the city's rich musical history with a distinctly contemporary perspective.
