Royal

From a catchy cocky rock-pop chorus, “Would you move like that if I never touched your body again,” to a nostalgic verse and a heart-wrenching orchestral finale, Royal Fools’ “Pretender” is a love song, or rather breakup song, in the rawest sense.

Pretender

Motherly love, motherly hate. “Bats in the Attic” encapsulates the turbulence of growing up in and getting out of a tumultuous household. With melancholy verses and a soaring finale, Royal Fools’ sophomore single recounts the complexities and struggles of queer youth, both sonically and lyrically. Blending East Coast folk and their signature LA alt-rock sound, “Bats in the Attic” tells the story of the twins’ escape from their painful past through metaphor and viscous honesty.

With soaring choirs and strings and an alt rock punch to the gut, He's Better Now encapsulates the essence of Royal Fools in their pure unadulterated form. A groveling attempt at having your shit together and the plea to be seen as okay.

Combining gritty East Coast candor, from growing up around Boston, with rowdy West Coast bravado from attending college in Los Angeles, identical twin brothers Royal Fools blend intricate instrumentation with raspy vocals to bring new england pop-rock to the LA music scene.
