Alanna Royale has a voice like honey; no wonder she’s generated so much buzz. She and her high energy 5-piece band have proven to be cornerstones in Nashville’s small but powerful soul scene, all without the help of lame puns (up until this point.) “Animal” is the superb single off their deput EP “Bless Her Heart.” They play at 9pm at the Basement Friday night with JC Brookes and the Uptown Sound, Treetop Flyers and Andrew Combs Midnight Steelism. -Terra James-Jura
