Thursday night marked not one but two debut performances in the US, at The Mezzanine in SF to be exact with up and comers The Royal Concept opening and stealing the show!
Adolescent angst was apparent as the audience grew larger and larger packing the club to capacity for the sold out show and nearly two hours after doors the show began just in time.
Over speakers or in headphones one cannot deny the very catchy, youthful Phoenix-esque sound, however on stage The Royal Concept swap neat and tidy for unbridled fun, both had and shared. Camera phones snapped pics and caught vids of the platinum blonde front man while whispers asking the question, "what's the name of this band?" circulated throughout their set, solidifying my assessment that the next time these Swedes tour they will be the main act.
If their self titled EP which includes the infectious single Gimme Twice doesn't fill your Royal void rest assured their debut LP is coming this fall!
