"The Watts are the sort of band that will restore your faith in blues-flavored rock 'n' roll. " - Dan Armonaitis, Spartanburg Herald-Journal THE WATTS are a rock ’n’ roll band in both the most basic, and conversely, most eclectic senses of the connotation. With a solid dual-guitar driven lineup fueled with pulsing bass guitar and drums, and featuring a distinct lead-vocal pair, THE WATTS have a style and sound to delight classic-rock purists, drawing stylistic comparisons to The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Grateful Dead and Santana. THE WATTS is by no means a recycler of rock’s yesteryear, however. Comprised of four members who cut their musical teeth in the 1980s, and performed and wrote music throughout the 1990s and early 2000s, THE WATTS have a modern appeal to audiences and have also drawn comparisons to Sugar Ray, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Sublime and 311. As diverse in their influences as they are in their individual personalities, THE WATTS contain elements of New Orleans-style funk, Chicago-style rhythm and blues and Detroit soul, as well as inflections of Jamaican-style reggae and flourishes of the Southern rock flavor indigenous to the band’s Upstate South Carolina home base.
