The Amazing Crowns (formerly Amazing Royal Crowns) are a rockabilly band that began in Providence, Rhode Island in 1993. It was composed of vocalist Jason "King" Kendall, bassist Jack "the Swinger" Hanlon, guitarist J.D. Burgess, and drummer Judd Williams. ==Career== In 1999, two years after gaining notoriety by winning the WBCN Rock & Roll Rumble in Boston, the band was forced to change their name mid-tour in response to pressure from lawyers representing Royal Crown Revue. During the quartet's heyday, they won Boston's WBCN Rumble, were nominated for seven Kahlua Boston Music Awards, toured extensively with the Mighty Mighty Bosstones, The Cramps, The Reverend Horton Heat and others, signed with Velvel Records and released a 1998 album entitled ''The Amazing Royal Crowns''.〔(Velvel Signs Amazing Royal Crowns )〕 The band's song, "Mr. Fix-it" is featured as a playable track in the hit video game ''Guitar Hero II''.〔(Game Chronicle )〕 In November 2012, the Amazing Crowns announced that hell has frozen over and they will be opening for the Mighty Mighty Bosstones on New Year's Eve in Boston, MA at the House of Blues. There they announced they would consider playing another show and for people to watch out for them. 〔https://www.bostonglobe.com/arts/2012/12/27/the-amazing-royal-crowns-assemble-for-rockabilly-reunion-hometown-throwdown/tcBX5ePXc25EwE3zbEGRXN/story.html〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Amazing Crowns」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
