In 2015, Melbourne band Black Cab was one of the 15 local acts that performed at Drive Live, PBS’s annual celebration of live music. During this week-long mini-festival, three bands go live to air in each day’s drive program. Following on from indie band Lowtide and electro-pop duo Black Cab headlined the performances on The Afterglow with a brooding, droney set of new wave magic that captivated the in-studio audience.   Formed in 2004 by Andrew Coates, and currently joined by Wes Holland on drums, Black Cab has released five studio albums and multiple singles, often collaborating...
