Barons
of Tang
Lashing
Tango, Rockabilly, Latin and Gypsy with breaks, hard
hitting guitar riffs, double kick blast beats and massive
horn arrangements.
The Barons serve up a tasty dish hard to refuse! The 7 piece
ensemble use mainly traditional gypsy and tango feels played
in the most bastardized and inappropriate way possible.
With accordion, double bass, saxophone and tuba to name
just a few The Barons of Tang have self-coined the term
'gypsy death-core'.

Funk jazz, celtic/country and swinging blues are their trademark
sound

popular, Paris Texas convey a feeling of joy, hope and celebration.
Being still a relatively new outfit one would think that they
had been around for years. The way the group inter locks and
supports each other is unique and inspiring. Led by the amazing
vocals of Gabrielle O'shanassey on bass, Mic Porter guitar
and David Breeze guitar/bass weaver spellbinding textures
that interlace Brett Evans urban upon funk sax lines that
cry out for attention every beat of the way. Special guests
abound around this tight knit group of disciples of groove,
So just like music you can never know what is around the next
beat. Take the trip and experience Paris Texas
