6 years later, I still come back to this clip for a dose of serotonin. ❤️
Say it again about to be 2024 and just revisited this to listening to this in my brand new headphones
This is my favourite version ever
Calling it now, these guys win.
you called it. They won!
they did? finally maybe that's the shot tank and the bangas needed.
yes, they did
I've some stocks I need you to look at. 😊
matmoose You totally called it!👌
"Back is aching / My bra too tight / My booty is shakin' from left to right." Can't get enough of this band!
they fell back on the old school chant....from waaaaay waayyyy back in the day. Love it
TANK IS SO FREAKING PRETTY
Issssss
Are you the boy in her DM says she's pretty?! 😂
Frankly, I listen to this version more than the album version. It feels like I'm jamming with them, more intimate 👌🏽🎧
Same here, I like the rawness of this version
This woman is amazing
the white guy with the saxophone looks like he is having the time of his life for the whole performance :)
I LOVEEEEEEEEE HIMMMMM!
He's LOVING the swirl! Get it white boy!!
I know I would be if I was part of this band.
You would be to if you were wearing that jacket.
Albert always looks like he still can't belive he's a Banga.
1:49, that note she hits with just enough rasp...got me like 😍
YESSSSSSSS
Jill Scott and The Roots vibes from this, this was dope!!
I'm in love with Anjelika's vocals, such beautiful energy she creates... especially starting at 2:27
Right! I listened to this so many times trying to get the lyrics.
Jellllllyy
This is probably the most deserving winning entry in the history of contests.
I'm 70 years old. I enjoyed you daughter!
Huh?
yasss
Oaklab Sound System 'huh' what? She's calling her daughter because of her age- it's a term of endearment.
1960's girl I'm gonna be like you when I grow up. You're my mama's age but she's not as cool. 😍
I misread. I thought it said, "I enjoyed YOUR daughter". Whoops.
When they broke it down.... i'm pretty sure i levitated
blair williams my favorite part of the song 🥰
@@Realtalktv1216 same
WHY ARE YOU ALL SO TALENTED AND ADORABLE?! Like...why?
How is that guy casually grading papers in the back
Saw em at Afropunk in Atl last year. NPR needs them on like yesterday ! love em !
Taron Henton yeah this group so talented. I saw them last year I became a instant fan
They turned AP OUT!!!!
WINNERS!!! But didn't I say that 3 weeks ago??? So so happy for you, and for us in the west, who will get to hear you live very soon when you're on tour with the Tiny Desk folks!! CONGRATULATIONS!!
Diana Gameros You called it, homie!
Doin' New Orleans proud! Congratulations!!!!
Saw this on facebook and fell in love. The girl with the beats jumper, I love her personality!💖
Ese Kanayo she's the "tank" in "tank and the bangas" :)
You all are going to be HUGE. I can barely express how much I enjoyed this, just remarkable how much energy and potential is displayed in this video. You have a new fan in myself and I anticipate I won't be alone. Man, can't wait to see more from ya'll.
Had the same feeling when I met them last year in London, they tore up the stage. Spoke to Tank and we shot a quick vid. Talent is insane!
Spencer Hayes going to be?! They have been out for years. And not huge yet. People don't appreciate good music anymore. But I'm glad you finally found them...
tjwilliams610 Fair enough, but I can only imagine winning the Tiny Desk contest is going to launch them to a completely different level of notoriety. There's a lot of music these days and it's rare to find a group this unique. I hope they come to Detroit, would love to see them live 👍
Spencer Hayes well said man
same here
The venues are too small in which they are performing. The shows are sold out months in advance and there are the waiting lists. She is much bigger than that! The promoters have underestimated the gift of "Tank and the Bangers".
P Hill agreed.
This is an NPR tiny desk concert.
The entire point is folks put on a tiny concert in a side room for NPR employees. It’s a fun, silly gimmick.
They all slayed the entire universe. This performance is flawless i swear to god.
when I say I LOVEEEEEEE you guys chemistry and originality unmatched! forever praying that the world knows about you guys 💜💜💜💜💜.
Congratulations! Your NPR Tiny Desk Contest entry is a well deserved win. :)
This was so much fun to watch like it changed my WHOLE mood.
Yes!
Mario Warren mine too omg
Dear Tank and the Bangas,
I deeply apologize for turtling in my discovery for you. FR you guys make me want to cry - u guys express passion on a whole new level.
I can't stop watching this video! Every day!
This isn't ordinary music hits something in your soul u can't even explain very eccentric
I listened to you guys on NPR today, not only do you sound awesome, but you gave probably the best description of why New Orleans got such a good musical soul. I really hope you guys go places, cause I'll be listening if you do.
Kyle Barr She really did! I almost cried; I miss living there so much
Albert feels music the way I do. The hand movements look just like me. Lol! Go Albert!!!
I'm so happy you were the winners... otherwise I wouldn't be enjoying this amazing song right now. I love this playful and interactive style.. LOVE IT!
AMAZING SOUND ... the entire group!
I could listen to this all day. But it's so much more fun to watch! You guys rock!
Saw this on FB, headed to Google Play to buy and it's not there. Why don't ya'll want this money?
Slappysan 😂 ikr? I think it's gonna be on their new album.
I was thinking the same. take my money!
Slappysan it's up now man!
Spotify?
Slappysan Google play music. I don't know about spotify lol
I love yall!! I'm old school lunch break 1984....Houston Texas
Can we all take a moment to appreciate the bassist! His groves ate the shit! Way to go laying it down on the low end!
I never ever comment on CZcams vids but you guys are the realest and most original artists I've seen in a long time. Repeat, repeat, repeat. Lol
I've watched this video like 20 times since coming across it on Facebook last week. Cannot get enough of it. And beside the talent on display all around, Tank's smile is magic. Love her.
This live version is better than the studio. The emotion and fun expressed-love it!
I love watching groups like this because you feel how much they love what they're doing coming from every aspect of the performance. So charismatic
The sax player at 1:17 is priceless
Watching "Queen Sugar" and one of their songs came on. I Shazamed and the moment their name and pic came up I IMMEDIATELY remembered this. I'm OVERJOYED to see they're getting their work more places and recognized. Such a dynamic, impressive group. I'm in love
It’s one of two things. Either tiny desk knew these cats or tiny desk won the mega millions of artists. Things will never be the same.
she's electric! wow amazing
I can guarantee that we are going to hear/see you more this year! You guys are so talented! Keep shining! You've got a new fan!
Bass player turned the funk volume up to 11
I've been listening to this song nonstop for the past few weeks. You guys are so fresh, I love it.
Wow, you guys are just plain fun and lovely. Looking forward to hearing much much more.
If my employees wanted to do this on break I would totally support it.
I keep watching this over and over. So refreshing to see musicians enveloped in the joy of creating. Amazing.
I cannot watch this enough. I cant even deal.
Loving jelly’s vocals 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Giving some Jill Scott vibes!😊💕
Love u guys!! Just checked out the NPR performance and it's on fireeeeee! Love u 1 more time!!!!
2023 and still one of my favs!
Love the faces Mr. Allenback is making. Also, love the Beats sweater on the lead🤩😍😍😍😍
I'm speechless
this bumps hard take my money!! can't wait to listen to everything else you've got
this song is my existence i live for it
I fell in love with this band after this video. I saw them play last summer. The sound at Santa Barbara bowl was horrendous. It was a bummer. Still, they’re amazing.
My dull bleak work week is so much better now that I have discovered Tank and the Bangas! This is so out of the ballpark amazing! I wanted this video to follow them to lunch.
This is total brilliance. Yassss. This whole ensemble knows how to play AND entertain. Will be looking for you guys when you come to NYC. Keep rocking it!!! Sending love from the big apple.
OMG!!! I just heard about you this morning and you are already my favorite band ever!!!! I want to come to New Orleans just to see you!!
3:50 to to 3:55 cracks me up EVERY single time. Love these girls/guys. Lunchtime!
Yowza, that was hot! It's pretty rare to see a completely new style of music, at least it was to my ears. Fabulous performers, too--so much energy and joy. I'll be in NOLA for Jazzfest and will see you then!
This is my favourite version of Quick. The bridge in this version gives me chills.
I come on here everyday just to listen to this song.
Congratulations! I can't stop listening to this song and I love your energy.
Great energy! Love you people! Good luck!
Officially obsessed ❤️
The Shade Room brought me here and I'm so glad! I love love love it!
I love, love, love these guys!
Love you guys
This is sooooooo good. Somehow gave me a Chance the Rapper vibe?! COLLAB ASAP
hella feel this
I get more of an Anderson Pak feel from this group
s a d らはに Chance, them, and Anderson Pak
Much love from Boston!
Never tire of this
WOW...just wow. Complex melodies and complex lyrics, beautiful storytelling, enthusiasm, great voice, great band cohesion. They're brilliant.
This is sick, well-deserved win. Looking forward to the Tiny Desk!
I've seen a lot of entries filmed a lot more professionally, good to know these guys won on talent, charisma and hard work because that's all I'll have to throw at it as well :)
Good audition vid. Why is this the best vid I've seen of them?
K Lewis because it captures the essence of them that you only get in person. This is really them every day!!!

Wow, took me on a musical story time, what an adventure!!
I love love love this. Excellent job and congratulations on NPR Tiny Desk Contest! This is well deserved and I can't wait to see you tour!
This still makes me smile from ear to ear. I know the 2018 Tiny Desk contestants aren't in competition with Tank and the Bangas, but they did set the bar high. It's nearly unreachable!
Awesome music! can't wait to hear more from you!
I'm so glad I found y'all. I'm obsessed!! type of music we need. I can't wait until you guys make it! New Fanatic.
Just saw them last night in Dunellen, NJ, my God, it was worth staying out late on a work week. They are all so talented and magically!!
theshaderoom bought me here and I am in love with this song had to hear the whole thing!
