A title long held by Cusses, currently taking a break from performing and life in Savannah, the town’s chosen our ‘70s-inspired hard-rockin’ pysch guitar gods Niche as Savannah’s Best Local Rock Band.
The band’s 2015 Retro Futurist Records LP, Heading East, solidified them as a force to be reckoned with: from the tight dueling guitar leads to organ strains and big vocals, Niche boasts cross-generational appeal that just plain rocks.
