Pink Royal

Lawrence, KS based band Pink Royal was the brainchild of guitarist Steven LaCour. Following a brief stint with an alternate line up, LaCour recruited local musicians Dylan Guthrie, Nick Carswell, and Alex Hartmann. Pink Royal as we know it was born. Three years on Pink Royal is badder than ever. With recent additions of guitarist Josh Dorrell, of Lawrence’s Alien Jones, and Saxophonist/Keyboard player Zak Pischnotte, right out of KU’s music performance doctoral program, PR is able to blend highly technical arrangements into an approachable sound that’ll leave musicians grinning and the less inhibited busting a move! Most notably, Pink Royal released its first full length album “Taps” in April of 2015. “Taps” is a collaborative song-writing effort spearheaded by LaCour that is an amalgamation of indie-pop, funk, and soul, incorporating powerfully intricate guitar lines and catchy melodies. Despite Pink Royal’s wide-range of influences, one thing remains consistent—an unshakeable groove. Since the release of “Taps”, Pink Royal has been propelled to new heights, hitting the scene with a renewed tenacity spreading its gospel of fun, love, and positivity. PINK ROYAL GETS DOWN as evidenced by their high-energy live shows. Driven by Guthrie’s behind the mic antics and omnipresent intensity, PR delivers a tidy package of self-described “experimental groove-pop” to your ear-holes, inducing euphoria and a strong compulsion to grab the person next to you and boogie on DOWN.
