David Shaw and Tarriona ‘Tank’ Ball Bring the Heat to New Orleans’ Musicians on Musicians Event


The Revivalist frontman & Tank and the Bangas talk New Orleans' musical lineage and perform an intimate show at Royal Sonesta Hotel on Bourbon Street

Asked what people get wrong about New Orleans music, Tank and Shaw encouraged visitors and locals alike to explore the city’s culture beyond the big events like Mardi Gras. The band’s energy never flagged as they moved onto songs including “Boxes and Squares” and a cover of fellow New Orleanian Louis Armstrong’s “What a Wonderful World,” with a special spoken word addition by Tank.
