2020 “Best New Artist” Grammy nominee and critically acclaimed band Tank and The Bangas’ new EP, Friend Goals, is out on Verve Forecast. The EP includes numerous musical contributions from various friends the band has made throughout their career including CHIKA, Duckwrth and PJ Morton as well as a number of New Orleans-based creatives. 

The new music has already begun to receive praise—Teen Vogue proclaimed, “[‘Self Care’ is] a fun, smooth, compelling tune that proves once again that Tank and the Bangas are some of the most interesting musicians creating right now. Plus that flute hook is seriously addictive,” while Consequence of Sound furthered, “The track itself is exactly what we need in 2020, an ode to being with yourself and being damn okay with it.” The AV Club added, “New Orleans gem Tank andamp; The Bangas consistently deliver buttery grooves underneath some of the sharpest lyricism in the industry.”

“There are hair goals, body goals, but Tank and The Bangas are actual friend goals! This special EP is full of some of our favorite artists from New Orleans and around the globe. The fun, creative, energy is put into every track and each one is sure to have you dancing your quarantine blues away. We made this one just for you,” says frontwomen Tarriona ‘Tank’ Ball.

In conjunction with the release, the band debuts the video for their track “To Be Real,” which was directed by Ball and features New Orleans-based artists Hasizzle, Keedy Black and Big Choo

Additionally, the band will webstream a live performance from Le Petit Theatre in New Orleans on Wednesday, November 25 at p.m. ET. Fans can purchase access to the livestream HERE.

The EP follows the release of the New Orleans-based band’s major label debut, Green Balloon, which arrived in 2019 to widespread critical praise.
