Royel Otis Bring Their Sofa King Gorgeous Show to The Majestic
Royel Otis, the Australian duo that is getting all sorts of radio attention as one of Audacy’s Launch Artists passed through The Majestic Detroit on September 13, and showed why they are currently blazing up the charts and gaining attention in the states.
Last year’s ‘PRATTS & PAIN’ debuted at #1 on the ARIA Australian Albums Chart and #1 on the Top 20 Vinyl Albums Chart, and gained worldwide acclaim with support from radio, as well as amassing over 400 million streams across their discography with 300 million of those occurring in the last 12 months.
The band’s stage was adorned with a giant shrimp (a very Australian joke), and played with very moody-toned lighting, which fit their overall sound. Their set was stacked with their staple tracks, setting “Sofa King” and “Kool Aid” toward the end of the set, while closing out the show with their cover of “Murder On The Dance Floor” as well as the Cranberries’ hit “Linger.”
To get a visual on their play style, check out this video of ‘Like A Version’ where they perform “Murder On The Dance Floor”:
The band is somewhat mysterious, with not much to say being so soft-spoken, and letting the music do all the talking. Not being able to see Royel Maddell’s face through his hair, you focus on his guitar playing and overall performance, while Otis Pavlovic tends to be the more visible of the pair, moving around all over the stage. Their set sounded true to their recordings, and the fans took it all in, not getting too rowdy, and enjoying the artistry.
