Best Local Rock Band

COEDS

A breakout year for the beloved local quartet, as they marked the release of their long-anticipated debut full-length, Thrill Me!, with a party at The Jinx. Anna, Phillip, Jeremiah, and the now long distance drummer Donald continue to fill a very busy dance card of gigs all over the area with their unique brand of garage/psychobilly/power-pop.
