HAPPY 20TH ANNIVERSARY, COWBOY BEBOP!! ❤

Our live cover of "Tank!" by Yoko Kanno, performed live at Liberty City Anime Con on August 19, 2018. Originally performed by The Seatbelts, and heard as the opening theme to Cowboy Bebop. This arrangement by Khrys Williams.

WOOO! It feels great to finally share this with you all! This is truly one of the greatest anime openings ever, and among the reasons why it stands the test of time, here's one: Jazz is timeless! You dig?

We apologize for the audio quality, but we just had to share this moment in whatever way possible from what may have been our favorite show up to this point (and our favorite LCAC show after 3 years here!). We hope to do more convention shows in the future! You all are our community, and we can't think of a better place to share all this otaku-jazz love than at a good ol' anime con! Much love and thanks from all of us to all of you, as always.
