Tanzana
Description
Scottish alternative rock band Tanzana bring their dark, theatrical sound to V11 in Rotterdam on Wednesday 4 November 2026. Expect brooding guitars, hypnotic melodies and haunting vocals from one of Glasgow's emerging alternative acts.
The five-piece combine elements of gothic rock, post-punk and alternative music, creating an atmospheric sound that moves between delicate melodies and explosive guitar-driven passages. Fronted by vocalist Freya Talbot, Tanzana have attracted attention for their intense performances and distinctive musical style, drawing comparisons to PJ Harvey, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Chelsea Wolfe and The Last Dinner Party.
Following their appearance at Rotterdam's Left of the Dial festival in 2025, Tanzana return for their own headline concert aboard V11. The show follows the release of their debut EP, Etched In, which arrived on 9 October 2026 through SO Recordings and Hideous Mink Records. Featuring tracks such as Without A Sound, Covet and This Love, the record explores emotional vulnerability through atmospheric arrangements and powerful vocals.
Having toured alongside Irish band Madra Salach, Tanzana are building a reputation on the alternative music circuit. Their Rotterdam performance offers the chance to experience their music in an intimate setting.
