 TAB Family - WLFT (EP) Tour

The Bird
Saturday 6 January 2024

Start the year by supporting local WA music while hanging in one of the best beer gardens at The Bird. TAB Family will be taking to the stage in support of their EP "With Love, From TAB". The band is a unique rhythm and genre-blending project founded by Nigerian-born Producer, DJ and Percussionist Ayo Busari. The music is a soulful blend of smooth grooves and Afro-inspired beats with a twist of alt-pop melodies. When you hear tracks like the infectious “Dance for Me” and “Oya Now” you’ll understand why they’ve sold out previous gigs.
