TV on the Radio Concert Tickets

There is a new brand of music piercing through the thick skin of mainstream yet staying true to independent values, and TV on the Radio subscribes to that genre- Experimental Rock.

Nigerian born Tunde Adempimpe, an avid Fela Kuti fan, and Yeah Yeah Yeahs producer David Andrew Sitek formed the duo TV on the Radio in 2001.
