When listening to Brooklyn new-wave/psych-rock band Black Taxi, one can hear a diverse range of influences in the band’s dance-punk sound that range from Daft Punk to The Clash. The band’s sound is meant to be heard in a live setting and their explosive live sets have led to sold-out shows at Bowery Ballroom, Brooklyn Bowl and Bowery Electric.

Black Taxi just released a video for the song "Shoeshine" (which is the lead-off track from 2009’s Thing of that Nature).



Black Taxi welcomes 2011 with a local show on January 29th at the Bowery Ballroom. Sharing the bill is Deadbeat Darling, Frontier Brothers and Miniboone. Advanced tickets are $13 and $15 (DOS). Doors are at 7:30PM and the show starts at 8:30PM.
