About
Tank And The Bangas recently won NPR's Tiny Desk Contest out of over 6,000 entries. Their performance at the NPR headquarters in D.C. was described as a tear-jerking celebration. The band, hailing from New Orleans, blends R&B with hip-hop's storytelling, showcasing their versatility through genres like funk, jazz, and blues. Their winning song, "Quick," combines liquor and revenge with their unique humor and lyricism. The group's dynamic is marked by the seamless interaction between Tarriona "Tank" Ball and Anjelika "Jelly" Joseph, who share singing roles like close friends. Tank and The Bangas have won the 2017 Tiny Desk Contest, been Grammy-nominated in 2019 for the Best New Artist category, and have released three studio albums, including "Thinktank," "Green Balloon," and "Red Balloon."
