Expect something completely different when Alabama 3 take over Tunes in the Park 2026. This British band from Brixton, London have spent nearly three decades defying genre labels by fusing acid house beats with country, blues, gospel and punk attitude into a sound all of their own.
Formed in 1995, their music quickly gained cult status thanks to their unique blend of styles and theatrical, anarchic live shows that feel part rave, part roots rock revival and wholly unpredictable. Their track “Woke Up This Morning” went on to become one of the most recognisable television themes of all time as the opening music for The Sopranos, bringing the band worldwide attention and introducing their sound to millions.
On stage, Alabama 3 are renowned for their energetic performances that mix tongue‑in‑cheek humour, political commentary and irresistible grooves. Whether blending honky‑tonk swagger with pulsing electronic beats or calling the crowd to lose themselves in soulful refrains and gritty riffs, their show always feels like a celebration of the unexpected.
