This Los Angeles, California, USA quintet was assembled in 1987 from the remnants of several local club circuit rock groups. Comprising Joe LeSte (vocals), Mark Knight (guitar), secured a contract with MCA Records. This followed the release of a highly regarded live mini-album that the group partly financed themselves. Initially, they fostered a sleazy, low-life image and incorporated influences such as Aerosmith and the Cult. This manifested itself on Psycho Cafe, a refreshingly honest, but slightly offbeat, hard rock album that was characterized by LeSte's laconic vocal style. Dancin' On Coals, released in 1991, indicated that the group had matured remarkably in two years. It featured a greater degree of musical sophistication, including soulful and more blues-based material. Apparently poised for international success and recognition, the group left MCA for the Music For Nations independent, revitalizing their career with the self-proclaiming New Generation. Love After Death, its 1995 follow-up, featured Nicky Hopkins on one of his last session appearances, adding piano to "1000 Goodbyes". Now Joe is taking Bang Tango back on the road. Are you ready to rock because they are.
