Texas-bred heavy blues psych-rock from Royal Sons live at The 13th floor.
Royal Sons play The 13th Floor on Saturday, August 15. It's a single-bill night, so they're the only act on the program.
They're a Texas-bred band playing heavy blues psych-rock, and that description does most of the work. The blues part is the foundation—the kind of slow-burn, guitar-driven sound that feels right at home in a Texas room. The psych-rock is where it opens up, stretching those riffs out into something a bit more expansive and trippy. When you put them together, you get music that's heavy on the low end and loud enough to fill the space.
Because they're Texas-bred, there's a local connection to the sound they're bringing to the stage. It's not a touring act passing through from another coast; it's a band playing in their own backyard. If you've spent any time with the Austin scene, you know that heavy, guitar-led sound has a long history around here, and this fits right into that lineage.
