"Although all four members of The Royal Streets have gone to school and
been friends with each other for the majority of their lives, it wasn’t
until after high school that they decided to combine their efforts
musically. They are based out of Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario
and over the past several months a lot has happened for the young band.
Since forming in November 2012, The Royal Streets have put
together an exciting and energetic collection of folk-rock tunes, and
have been busy performing these songs across Ontario and Eastern Canada
for the past 8 months."
Check out the band on Facebook, SoundCloud, Twitter and BandCamp. The 'acoustic-folk rock' band just released the "Pillowcase Suitcase" EP as they continue readying their debut full-length, set for an early March release. I want to thank Michael Demsey (Guitar) for taking the time to participate in this edition of First/Last.

Least favorite/most disappointing
album?
John Mayer “Battle Studies”. I love John Mayer, but I think I expected too much after “Continuum”. A few good tracks but I was hoping for much more.

Any thoughts,
experiences about Pittsburgh?
Unfortunately have never been, but have only heard good things. Was heavily into early Mac Miller & Wiz, they rep the city pretty hard.

Thanks, Michael. Really diggin' the EP and look forward to the record proper in March. If the tour hits Pittsburgh by chance, be sure to drop a line. Have to say, I am surprised that Clapton could put on a bad show, unless you were a toddler and caught him in his 'drug-daze' during the 70s?
