Boom Dang The Band perform an original set of mixed up styles featuring drum & bass, bhangra, hip-hop, latin, afro-beat, merengue and drumline.
They are hard to miss in their famous red and white costume.
Boom Dang ignite any parade, can set the stage alight with their static routines or churn up the dance tent at any festival.
Boom Dang are a hard working band. Touring for the last ten years, Boom Dang have been booked to perform in Belfast, Brussels, Barcelona, all major UK cities, at Hall 1 and Hall 2 of The Sage Gateshead and most notably for the Queen.
Their biggest booking to date was for the National Lottery Awards shown on BBC One. Boom Dang worked with Paul Domaine – Choreographer and Matt Brind – Musical Director.
A “hairs-on-the-back-of-your-neck-stick-up” piece of music was composed by Matt Brind. The show featured 10 other acts, from around the UK and Paul and Matt had the job of giving each act a slot so that the finished showpiece was an integration of contemporary dancers, a singer, gymnasts, Boom Dang, back flip boys, fencers, capoira, ballet and acrobats who all seamlessly fitted together to produce a show-stopping performance that had the audience offering rapturous applause.
