Orbiting Jersey City, NJ, Royal Blush is a blend of nostalgic alt-rock roots and modern grunge punch. Formed in 2021 by guitarist Andrew Merclean, this collective features Midwest-born vocalist Allison Heckart and Polish American producer/guitarist Patryk Sikorski. Rounding out this fierce lineup on stage is drummer John Carbone, who doubles as vocalist of the Long Island band Moon Tooth. Together, Royal Blush hones new sounds while merging multiple genres with a signature intensity. Fresh off the release of its debut EP “A Ways Away,” Plastic Magazine calls Royal Blush “poised, ambitious and driven with a compelling sonic vision.”
