Three-Chord Mayhem: “Go see a Woggles show. It will change your life,” says Meredith Ochs of NPR All Songs Considered. The Athens-based band has been spreading their riotous music to enthusiastic fans for over two decades. They have built a cult following with memorable live shows, and a sound that draws from the roots of popular American music. As the band's website explains: "Combine a whole lot of 60’s rock ’n’ roll with a fist-full of soul, a hip flask of rhythm & blues and a splash of surf and you’ll have the exciting sound of the Woggles." Rock out with the Woggles at the Double Crown on Tuesday, Sept. 24.
