They did not disappoint. The band is no stranger to the venue, having opened for <strong>Lettuce<\/strong> in January 2017. This time, they played two powerful sets that included a double dose of horns, featuring <strong>Mario D&#8217;Ambrosio<\/strong> (<strong>Yellow Dubmarine<\/strong>) on sax and <strong>Joe Herrera<\/strong> (<strong>Thievery Corporation<\/strong>) on trumpet.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The New York natives have been on a steady rise on the jam circuit since their 2014 release, <em>Collisions<\/em>. TAUK has played at a bevy of DC-area venues since then, including <strong>Gypsy Sally&#8217;s<\/strong>, <strong>Jammin&#8217; Java<\/strong>, <strong>Echostage<\/strong>, <strong>Baltimore Soundstage<\/strong>, <strong>Rams Head Live<\/strong> and most recently <strong>The Anthem<\/strong>, opening for <strong>The Disco Biscuits<\/strong>. Their distinct sound, self-described as &#8220;heavy instrumental rock fusion&#8221; has captured audiences nationally and they are only getting better. Friday marked another breakthrough and the band made it count. The first set featured a pair of songs \u2013 &#8220;Horizon&#8221; and &#8220;Rainwalk&#8221; \u2013 from their 2016 release, <em>Sir Nebula,&nbsp;<\/em>followed by a new tune, &#8220;Cocoa Butter.&#8221; Following &#8220;Pioneer&#8221; and &#8220;Tumbler,&#8221; TAUK welcomed the horns for an impressive set closing trio. <strong>Isaac Teel<\/strong> (drums) took the rare vocal lead on <strong>Earth Wind and Fire&#8217;s<\/strong> &#8220;Shining Star&#8221; that included a great sax solo by D&#8217;Ambrosio. The horns settled in and the energy from the stage was lifted during the first set closer, a cover from the <em>Kill Bill<\/em> soundtrack, &#8220;Battle Without Honor or Humanity.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"tve_image_frame\" style=\"width: 100%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"tve_image wp-image-39892\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" title=\"TAUK\" data-id=\"39892\" src=\"\/\/www.dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_4270-300x200.jpg\" scale=\"0\" style=\"width: 100%; -webkit-user-select: none;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_4270-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_4270-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_4270-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_4270-180x120.jpg 180w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_4270-64x43.jpg 64w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_4270-220x147.jpg 220w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_4270-404x270.jpg 404w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_4270-374x250.jpg 374w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_4270-240x160.jpg 240w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_4270-350x234.jpg 350w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_4270-561x375.jpg 561w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_4270-698x466.jpg 698w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_4270-838x560.jpg 838w, https:\/\/dcmusicreview.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/JBG_4270.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p>After setbreak, TAUK didn&#8217;t mess around, coming out with the sonic rocker, &#8220;Program Select.&#8221; The band hit the groove instantly as <strong>Charlie Dolan<\/strong> (bass) and Teel were visibly locked in. <strong>Matt Jalbert<\/strong> (guitar) displayed his tone mastery with a significantly stretched out solo that included some wild bends as<strong> Alric &#8220;A.C.&#8221; Carter<\/strong> (keys) laid down beautiful soundscapes underneath. TAUK was in their element from there on out. Next came &#8220;The Spot&#8221; off the band&#8217;s 2013 release, <em>Homunculus<\/em>, and shit got heavy. The tune showcased the band&#8217;s cohesiveness and affinity for beautiful melodies before entering a meaty jam section that peaked with a vengeance. The band entered the next level and they weren&#8217;t turning back. Next came &#8220;In the Basement of the Alamo,&#8221; one of TAUK&#8217;s most powerful songs. In no rush, the band slowly built up the escalating intro before settling into &nbsp;an impressive exploratory journey. The crowd was most definitely taken to &#8220;the basement&#8221; as the quartet delved into a mind-bending jam section that seemed to eclipse the point of no return before returning to the song&#8217;s main riff. After &#8220;Side Project,&#8221; TAUK once again was joined by D&#8217;Ambrosio and Herrera for a take on the spacey reggae number, &#8220;Premises,&#8221; off the band&#8217;s recent EP release, <em>Shapeshifter I: Construct<\/em>. They followed with another tune off the EP, &#8220;Malware,&#8221; before entering into the angsty rocker, &#8220;The Chemist&#8221; to close out an epic second set.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The crowd wanted more and the band obliged, returning to the stage with the horns for one last jam. The power was palpable as TAUK unleashed &nbsp;&#8220;Collateral,&#8221; the ultimate show stopper. This rendition would prove unique as the band paid their respects to the unofficial <em>Star Wars&#8217;<\/em> holiday and segued into a rollicking &#8220;Imperial March.&#8221; Light Director<strong> John Olsen<\/strong> had some fun and treated the crowd to his version of a lightsaber battle as TAUK sent the crowd off with a proper &#8220;May The Fourth&#8221; be with you. The force is definitely with TAUK and we are lucky to witness their ascension to warp speed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>TAUK returns to its home state for a pair of shows at <strong>Brooklyn Bowl<\/strong> on May <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/events\/216221775590603\/\" style=\"-webkit-user-select: none;\">18<\/a>&#8211;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/events\/1924819921180319\/\" style=\"-webkit-user-select: none;\">19<\/a> before hitting the summer music festival circuit including <a href=\"http:\/\/roosterwalk.com\" style=\"-webkit-user-select: none;\">Rooster Walk Music &amp; Arts Festival<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/summercampfestival.com\" style=\"-webkit-user-select: none;\">Summercamp Music Festival<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/campbisco.com\" style=\"-webkit-user-select: none;\">Camp Bisco<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/thebigwhat.com\" style=\"-webkit-user-select: none;\">The Big What?<\/a> and more.
