Show Review: The Daily Howl at The Watt 12.1

Nashville pop group The Daily Howl closed out the Ugly-X-Mas Sweater Show at The High Watt last Sunday Night with an energized set full of pogo-bouncing and hip-snapping. Their take on cautious, “Button-Up-Rock” (as I like to call it), reminded me of an even more radio friendly version of Jet, and who knows, you might be hearing the title track off their latest EP "Revolver" at Titans’ kickoffs, instead of the Melbourne rockers. The Daily Howl has been causing some buzz around town lately and just had a short clip of “Revolver” on ABC’s “Nashville” on December 4th. Although I don’t buy into The Daily Howl’s self-proclaimed title as the “Revival of Nashville Garage Rock” (because how do you revive the living?), they do know how to have fun on stage and subsequently create a good time for everyone. -Michael Perry
