Royales win “Best Band in Athens!”
Posted on 12 February 2011 | No responses
The Royales were honored to win first place in the Athens NEWS ongoing award program “The Best of Athens” for the catagory of “Best Band.” This is the 7th year in a row and the 8th time in 9 years. Thank you for voting for us!
Best Local Band or Performer
The Royales
This year, The Royales yet again win the Best Band category. This funkin’ rock confabulation gets better and better every year, and is one of the few local bands that can guarantee a good crowd almost any time of the year. That’s why it’s a big favorite with bars and events that need a solid draw.
The Royales need to look over their shoulders, however, because gaining ground is second-place finisher Duke Jr. and the Smokey Boots. Also coming from the roots-rock side of the track, DJASB trend more Americana and alt.country. Since coming on the scene a year or two ago, they’ve become another top local bar draw.
Third place is Elemental Groove Theory, a relatively new funky, horn-driven outfit that can light a spark on the dance floor whenever they play.
Others that received multiple votes, in descending order, include Skeletonwitch, Dave Rave, Mindfish, Any Color You’d Like, Broken Ring, Coolville Hot Club, Hellnaw, Scubadog, Southeast Engine, Rattletrap String Band, and a bunch more. And we mean A BUNCH. It’s amazing our town has enough bands to fill a whole page in small type.
