26BATS!

Circus pop band from Minneapolis. Fronted by the transgender nonbinary legend, Babo aka Bailey 26 Cogan and accompanied by their gentle giant bestie, Karl Remus on guitar, Daniel "Chavo" Chavez on trumpet, Jack Stanek on Bass, and Tarek Abdelqader on drums.

Coined 'the Genre Rebel' by Growler Mag, they wrote "26 BATS! has successfully garnered a following comprised of all kinds of music lovers. Being unmoored to any one genre puts the group in a unique spot, allowing them to share bills with a variety of acts: from Afrobeat legend Femi Kuti, Black Pumas, and Kirin J Callinan, to the silky, beat-laden Dua Saleh."
