Biography
Bang Tango's classic original line up consisted of Joe Lesté (Vocals), Mark Knight (Guitar), Kyle Stevens (Guitar), Kyle Kyle (Bass) and Tigg Ketler (Drums).
Minor success was had with their MTV hit "Someone Like You" from their debut album Psycho Café. Due to poor label decisions and mismanagement, the band's potential was never fully realized. Their sophomore effort Dancin' On Coals was critically acclaimed yet failed to appeal to the masses, therefore not achieving wide success.
Their final album, and finest work as the original line up Love After Death never got to see a U.S. release due to their label feeling they put too much into the band already.
Nevertheless, the group worked on until 1995 when they split up.
The band reformed in 1996 and lasted until 1999 with the line up of Joe Lesté, Kyle Kyle, Mark Tremalgia, and Danny Aon (until 1998), along with a revolving door of drummers including Ray Luzier, Michael Licata, Walter Earle, Danny Parker, and Rob Jones.
Also in 1996, Joe Lesté, Kyle Kyle and Danny Aon put together a side band called Eating Crow, whose song "So Abused" was featured in the film Wishmaster.
Joe Lesté saw minor success once again in 2001 with Beautiful Creatures, which only lasted for two albums.
Joe Lesté put Bang Tango back together in 2003, which to this day has a revolving door of musicians. Except for bass player Lance Eric, who has been in the band since 2005.
As of July 17, 2014, former Dio guitarist Rowan Robertson joined Bang Tango as they planned to tour for the band's 25th anniversary.
Bang Tango was the subject of the documentary Attack of Life: The Bang Tango Movie, which was released in 2015.
As of May 2015, Attack of Life: The Bang Tango Movie filmmaker Drew Fortier joined Bang Tango as their rhythm guitarist.
According to interviews with the band members, Bang Tango has been working on a new album, which will be the follow-up to 2011's Pistol Whipped in the Bible Belt. The album will include a song written by Johnny Blade and previously recorded by Player/Kommander, titled "When Will I Get Paid".
