The Smalltown sound is fun bass-heavy house music, combining the spirit of Canada's outdoor electronic music festivals such as Shambhala & Bass Coast, with the sound they cultivated at the legendary Hifi Club in Calgary (which they owned and operated). In 2025 they are releasing music on DirtyBird, Rules Don't Apply, Box of Cats and more.  

They've played shows across the globe including Fabric in London & U-Hall in DC, and Bestival in Toronto. With highlights that include appearances on Diplo & Claude Vonstroke's radio shows, a one-year stint in Las Vegas, the yearly Mountain Magic Tour with Christian Martin (of Dirtybird) and friends, and their collaboration with Shad & Wax Romeo "Boom Ha" being featured in the HBO show "Girls". 

In 2025 they have a ton of new music on the way!

Royal Gala are a nine piece band, comprising Huge brass hooks, big bass-lines, dirty, raw, soulful vocals and infectious rhythms. Having formed at the back end of 2007 and consisting of members from several top underground uk acts they have recently worked with Lost Vagueness, Electric Picnic, Shambala, Beatherder, Square Festival, Sheep Music Festival, Riverside Festival, Brisfest, The Correspondents, The Apples, The Destroyers, Pama International, Neville Staples of the Specials, Zion Train and Manchesters mighty Unabombers among many others. Playing a genre defying cocktail of Dirty Funk, Ska, Reggae/Dub, Breakbeat, Balkan beat, Latin and Brass laden orchestral grooves the band are moving from strength to strength, writing, recording, gigging and generally having a ball!

'Fully-blown soulful tropical gangster-type sound'
'This is a band that will keep you up on the dance floor dancing in to the small hours until your feet are numb and your clothes are soaked through with sheer joy and abandonment' - (Leftlion)

'Royal Gala blend hot-steppin' ska with hard hitting soul and percussive loops to create a non-pretentious funk hybrid that could start a revolution' - (Scene Magazine)


“Great Ska brass section and skanking guitar work, topping the pile is a superb empassioned squalling vocal and rounding off the bottom is a crazy deep sub-bass”……(Future Music Nov 08)

"Royal Gala on the main Shambala Stage has a crunching electro and bass sound. Their singer Louise Barnell is dressed in a multicolored, one-piece spandex suit, her stage persona swaying between Bat for Lashes’ cool air of mystery and Bonnie Tyler’s pure Celtic balls. Barnell’s voice belts out strong over the Balkan beats and dancing jazz rhythms, and Royal Gala are a mysterious and feisty mix as the sun shines down." (Popmatters)

i think music is pretty neato...

•	First gigs were in my hometown of Mullingar in 1997 with Martian Arts, supporting the likes of 808 State and Sunil Sharpe in The Stables.
•	By 1998, I had secured myself gigs playing techno at the legendary Genius night @ Kitchen and also The POD alongside Warren Kiernan & Joe McGrath. I also played at Derek F’s acid techno parties @ Tivoli Theatre and 13thFloor/McGraths’ supporting Dave the Drummer, Chris Liberator and Lawrie Immersion.
