Nothing Rhymes With Orange plays Propaganda. (Stephanie Colaianni / www.maggish.com)

Propaganda was the most packed I had ever seen it this past Friday night for the band Nothing Rhymes with Orange. I dragged my friend out explaining that this bar is so chill you don’t need to weave in and out of people to get to the bathroom. We found ourselves weaving.

Who could blame the crowd for coming out? The South Florida band, led by brotherly duo Carl Almasy and Rich Coccaro, has just played their last announced U.S. date before crossing the pond for a European tour. They have been together for years playing shows all over. I remember my first NRWO show was at SunFest a few years back. They were a huge hit there and I still have my sticker from that show.

In my opinion, they are a great bar band. Influenced by Oasis, David Bowie, and The Beatles, their sound is a slight mix of Jet and The Killers with a little Bravery thrown in. Their performance was very upbeat and poppy without losing the rock-vibe. With super tight jeans and beat up cowboy boots, it’s hard to not see that these guys own their genre.
