No, the Woggles aren’t a kiddies band, unless your toddler chain-smokes Camels and knows how to tap a keg. This Georgia four-piece plays in the style of ’60s-era Troggs, Kinks and Sam the Sham. Wilder than the Strokes, as melodic as Hoodoo Gurus and more in control than the Hives, this is a rock dance party from start to finish. Steven Van Zandt has championed this band on his Underground Garage radio show and no wonder: These dozen slabs of beefy goodness will have you grinning all day and all of the night.
