tank&PUMP are an improvisational rock band started by Bede Taylor formerly of Clench and Three Legged Horse. They got their name from the Tank & Pump shop on Tahi Road in Ostend where they practice.
Unlike the fairly straight-forward rock basics of Clench, tank&PUMP display much more sophisticated musicianship and a flair for improvisational experimentation not found in the 3 minute Clench repertoire. Many of their songs are extended jams that may go on for several minutes.
On Friday the 4th of December 2009 tank&PUMP (all 7 of them!) came into the Waiheke Radio studio to do a live set on Rock on the Rock. The result was a fantastic improvised grungy rock'n'roll extravaganza. You can listen or download this show here: http://www.waihekeradio.org.nz/node/672
