Superlatives are used far too frequently in the music business, but Tankus the Henge truly are the ultimate feel-good band. They come from a background of vaudeville and gypsy carnival, but it’s coupled with a commercial songwriting nous and flair for showmanship that makes them even greater than the sum of their parts.

Blessed with a charismatic cast of characters, Tankus the Henge are uplifting, uninhibited, eccentric, wondrously energetic and beautifully tuneful. One of the best live bands you’ll ever see. Any other band who billed themselves as ‘the most fantastic band in the world’ would rightly quake in their boots at having to live up to such fanfare. Tankus the Henge, a powerhouse five-piece, go on stage and deliver something that defies you to contradict them!
