ABOUT

G_Tano is the band known for throwing some of the funkiest parties in Melbourne. Founded by Stefano "Tano" Ioele in 2022, this high-energy collective blends old-school funk rhythms, acid jazz atmospheres, Mediterranean fusion and psychedelic soul into one explosive live sound.Its multicultural core adds up to the constant search for new grooves and tight breakdowns. No two line-ups ever sound quite the same, but the groove never wavers.The band's reputation for electrifying performances electrifying performances has earned residencies and shows at some of Melbourne's most iconic venues, including Bar Oussou, Open Studio, Bar 303, Northcote Social Club, The Espy and Bergy Bandroom, alongside memorable appearances at Brunswick Street Festival, Inverloch Jazz Festival, Firelight Festival, Yarraville Festival and more.In December 2023, the band became the only live act to perform at the National Gallery of Victoria's Grand Gala Night. The band has also taken its sound abroad, playing a show in Italy in 2024, proof that the groove travels as far as its members do.
