“Tanga's sound is fresh and exciting for both dancers and non-dancers alike!”
- Cheyenne Kamran, Director of the 2010 Vancouver International Salsa Festival

“Tanga plays with energy and a driving rhythm that has crowds up on their feet from the instant they start to play. The rhythm section is awesome with horn lines that are sharp and clean. The vocalists communicate their enthusiasm and emotion to the crowd in every song”
- Trevor Hooper, Kwalicum Music Association

“Tanga had the whole crowd engaged with the sounds of a great rhythm section, smoking vocals and a hot horn section. The band played an excellent selection of materiel from classic Cuban rhythms to modern funky latin jazz with vocals in Spanish that had the audience dancing in their chairs! A fantastic performance!”
- Michael Perkins, Collingwood Music School
