Nashville's hottest band, Royal Sugar, roars back onto the scene with their latest single, "Animals," a glam rock anthem that celebrates uncontained passion and raw energy. The track is a full-on sonic adventure that throws open the cage of primal desires and uninhibited connection.
"Animals" is a continuation of Royal Sugar's mission to redefine rock and roll. The band draws inspiration from the classic sounds of 70s and 80s glam rock but injects a healthy dose of modern pop. Royal Sugar was conceived after Tyler Cohenour, the band’s frontman, and Garrett Carr, in charge of the bass and vocal, met in college in Florida. Their deep musical connection led them to start a creative relationship that has evolved until becoming what we know today as “Royal Sugar.”
Their shared love for classic rock, instilled in them by their parents, is a foundation upon which they've built their sound. The band's success on TikTok, amassing a large following for their covers and original content, speaks to their ability to tap into a generation hungry for a revival of rock and roll. This kind of support from the audience is what has fueled their creative flame, which has transformed into the amazing track that “Animals” is.
Sparked by a riff from guitarist Jack Devine, the song's creation was an organic process. It ignited a creative fire in Tyler, to which Garrett immediately joined. This spontaneity translates directly into the music. "Animals" explodes from the speakers with a driving electric guitar riff that sizzles with untamed energy. The rhythm section lays down a powerful foundation, creating a soundscape that feels wild and untamed.
This powerful blend of high-voltage sounds perfectly mirrors the untamed love story the lyrics depict; two people finding comfort and passion in each other, surpassing any possible social expectation that tries to limit them. It is a celebration of the driving sensation of being in love, that makes us all break any rules, look for freedom looking after each other.
“The lyrics came so naturally because that riff embodies a sense of uninhibited freedom,” says Tyler. “It's the kind of raw, animalistic energy that exists within all of us, waiting to be unleashed. With 'Animals,' we wanted to strip away the pressures of the world and tap into the primal core of love and desire,” and they certainly did.
With "Animals," Royal Sugar isn't just releasing a song; they're making a statement and letting the world know who they are. They're a band fueled by a shared passion for music and a desire to redefine rock and roll for a new generation. "Animals" is a thrilling anthem that demands to be played loud, an invitation to experience the band's electrifying live shows and a glance at their potential to inspire audiences worldwide.
