The world of Tankus the Henge is uplifting and wild, dark and heartfelt.
A six piece powerhouse of a band drawing visual and musical influences from old time Fairgrounds to modern day Circus; The Beatles to Tom Waits and Gogol Bordello to Radiohead, they embody a look and a sound that lies somewhere between their Sout…h East London home and the carnival town of New Orleans.
With their charismatic frontman, Jaz Delorean, looking like a lost character from a Terry Gilliam film and the pump and grind of the Tankus the Henge sound generating a groove that makes it impossible to stand still, their live show ebbs and flows like a small boat on a turbulent sea.
“Imagine Suggs, The Clash and Paolo Nutini mixing a musical Ska recipe ..” Glasswerk Magazine
“Roll up and enter the dark carnival of Tankus the Henge, you will not regret one second of its fantastic touch… one of the most thrilling and sensationally addictive releases this year.” Ringmaster Review
“Imagine Madness with 2 drops of LSD. Totally original, completely non-contrived vaudeville psychobilly. That’s a new one…” Joyzine
