Home Grown Music: HGMN Bands

Steal The Prize is a groove-driven rock'n'roll group based out of Lynchburg, Virginia. With the original line up remaining solid since 2006, Steal The Prize have spent years defining their sound, vigorously performing live, and characterizing a unique regional music community. Working along side the fans, and other like-minded songwriters, the community strives to spread awareness to promote a united vision of originality in both music and culture.

Soulganic is a band that performs what they call Funky Indie Soul. I've been a fan of theirs for a while now, and their music has a nice mixture of gritty blues with interesting beats.

In the spirit of a previous post about bands y'all might like- I'd like to draw your attention to the HEAP from Athens, GA-

http://www.heapdeluxe.com

I'm fan of Galactic, the Sex Mob, and Dumpstaphunk, and the HEAP has elements in common with all of these...

Although, they don't tour extensively yet- they have the potential to be the ultimate festival band and have recently placed Atlanta's prestigious Tabernacle with Drivn' n Cryin'.

Be sure to catch them this summer at Athfest-

enjoy!

Peace-
