The Daily Howl came out on top of the reader’s choice poll, and with good reason. The garage rock revivalists have built their following through high energy shows and deft mastery of cheeky, complex pop. Their latest release, “The Revolver EP” can stand its own as most well-done and least contrived nods to the Beatles (if their radical phase was influenced by honky-tonks and hot chicken), but beyond that, it is a one-two punch of bubbly rock and Southern swagger. These boys deserve every ounce of recognition and much more; The Deli Nashville wishes them a banner 2014, and raises an Old-Fashioned Country Breakfast in their honor. -Terra James-Jura
