The Blang ethnic group has a rich tradition of folk tales and ballads which are transmitted orally. Their songs and dances show the strong influence of their Dai neighbors.

"Elephant-leg" drums, cymbals and three-stringed instruments provide musical accompaniment for dancing, and the young people often enjoy a dance called the "circle dance."

For the Blang people in the Mujiang area, New Year's Day and weddings are occasions for dancing and singing, often lasting the whole night.
