Like many fairy tales, Tight Night began after a session at the bar at Kumas in Chicago. Listening to Royal tell stories about what he had been up to recently, longtime friends Jeff (punk rock guitar legend of The Bomb, Dead Ending, Airstream Futures, and many more) and Chad (Team Band dilet-tante) decided then and there to immortalise the vibe in music. It was to be loud. It was to be hard. It was to be Tight Night.
