New York-based rock-fusion band TAUK is teaming up with vocalist Kanika Moore for a run of very special shows and festival appearances. After a number of highly energetic and powerful live collaborations including Electric Forest in 2018, Peach Festival, and Resonance Festival in 2021, they decided to jump in the studio and write a song, which turned into Kanika spending two weeks with the band resulting in Moore songs. The tunes conjured up during this session are the basis of the TAUK Moore tour coming to a town near you.

TAUK may be an instrumental band, but even without words, the group’s extraordinarynew album, Chaos Companion, manages to speak volumes about the ups and downs of a year that challenged—and transformed—us all. Forced off the road by the COVID-19pandemic, the quartet spent 2020 stretching themselves sonically, leaning into thesense of possibility that came with an empty calendar and letting it guide them towarduncharted territory. The resulting songs push TAUK’s sound to bold new heights, fusingelements of progressive rock, funk, soul, EDM, and hip-hop into a melodic,groove-driven blend, one that’s complemented here by the equally adventurousproduction work of longtime collaborator Robert Carranza. Add it all up and you’ve gota cinematic collection that hints at everything from 70’s film scores and 80’svideogames to 90’s R&B and modern dance music, an immersive record that blurs thelines between analog and electronic as it balances old school grit and futuristic sheenin equal measure.Founded by bassist Charlie Dolan, guitarist Matt Jalbert, and keyboardist Alric Carter,who began playing together in middle school, TAUK landed on its present lineup in2012, when drummer Isaac Teel joined full time. Since then, the quartet has gone onto tour with the likes of Umphrey’s McGee, Widespread Panic, and Lettuce, landed festival slots everywhere from Bonnaroo to Electric Forest, racked up millions of streams, and released a series of widely lauded studio and live albums

Electric Kif are a Miami-based power quartet that explore the boundaries between rock, jazz fusion and electronic drum & bass. Made up of bassist Rodrigo Zambrano, keyboardist Jason Matthews, drummer Armando Lopez and guitarist Eric Escanes, Electric Kif have garnered attention of the live music scene for their eclectic take on groove and their own brand of ‘post-nuclear music’. Within the past year, they released their 4th full length LP ‘DREAMLIKE’ featuring international heavy hitters Aaron Parks & Chris Bullock of Snarky Puppy. Their latest stand alone single ‘CODE GREEN’ also features Chicago rapper, Mick Jenkins and Miami’s own Wrekonize. They have performed with Snarky Puppy, Jojo Mayer/Nerve, Stanley Jordan, Ghost Note, Adam Deitch, Cory Henry, Roosevelt Collier, Tauk, Karl Denson’s Tiny Universe, Pigeons Playing Ping Pong, The Motet, Marco Benevento, and more.
