BlackTaxiMusic BLACK TAXI Music Brooklyn, NY The sons of sheep farmers, Mennonites, rail workers and Olympians, BLACK TAXI channel their diverse histories into a barn-yard stomp that is part rock, part carnival. Tribal beats and brash melodies collide in their songs, which are thick with harmonies. BLACK TAXI carries traces of The Clash, Cake, and Daft Punk, but these Brooklynites are driven by their search for newness. They play with a fever of movement and a visceral hunger; a hot noise doused in war paint that is all soul, swagger, and sweat.
