GREEN RIVER – Flaming Gorge Days Concert Chair Jasmine Weaver and the Flaming Gorge Days committee are pleased to announce that Royal Bliss are making their second appearance at FGD, and have been added to the rock night line-up on Saturday, June 28th, 2014.
It has been nearly 13 years of bliss, Royal Bliss that is. Royal Bliss is modern rock with equal parts beauty and tragedy. The band has already been through enough to justify their own VH1Behind the Music episode complete with addiction, near death experiences, car crashes, and law suits.
Hailing from Salt Lake City, Royal Bliss started in a basement with a few kids who had a passion for music and a drive to succeed. Striving to further their own abilities while building their fan base at the same time was always the ultimate goal. The music has been a message to those who listened, evolving every step of the way. From the early days when the lyrics echoed that of a late night frat party, to the deep, meaningful, and sometimes cries for help, the process of evolution is undeniable.
When asked about the meaning behind the band’s songs, lead singer Neal Middleton explained, “Devils and Angels is about feeling like you’re stuck in the middle and having to make a choice. It’s kind of like the old cartoons when the main character would have an angel on his right shoulder telling him to do the right thing and the devil on his left shoulder telling him the opposite. The song is just about internal struggles.”
Royal Bliss has been making their mark across the country for years now. Constant writing, recording, and touring have helped build the success of the band. The wide variety of influences from Johnny Cash to Snoop Dog and everything in between have melded a sound that cannot be denied. Their music is played across the country on the most popular radio stations, and has been in mass rotation in many markets. Touring with acts such as Buckcherry, Candlebox, Chevelle, Kid Rock, and Papa Roach has only increased the demand for the dynamic band from Utah. From the on-stage antics of front man Neal Middleton, to the energetic live shows, Royal Bliss continues to win fans over, all over the globe.
Flaming Gorge Days is one of the biggest events in Sweetwater County with two nights of concerts, a Festival in the Park, annual parade, golf tournament, 3 on 3 basketball tournament and so much more.
