Bustamento - Saturday 24 May

BustamentoOne of Australia's most highly respected musicians, Nicky Bomba, has jumped on his musical boat to deliver a party filled island adventure with his new band BUSTAMENTO and he's bringing the party to Tanks!

 

Nicky Bomba's BUSTAMENTO, touring Australia with their new album entitled Intrepid Adventures to the Lost Riddim Islands, delivers a party filled island adventure – a tropical shaking 6 piece that pays homage to the upbeat rhythms of the Caribbean, covering calypso, mento, early reggae and ska styles.

 

Nicky has built a solid reputation in the music industry via many projects including conducting the 30 piece Melbourne Ska Orchestra to playing drums on John Butler's award-winning 'Sunrise Over Sea' to being the Artistic Producer for the Multicultural Arts Victoria "Visible" project.
