LOCAL BAND FEATURE | THE DEFEATED ROYALS
Band shuffles mix but dream remains the same BY LUCAS PAULEY
ROCK FALLS – The Defeated Royals looked a lot like many other young bands – but in a good way – during an interview and video shoot Saturday morning at Ric and Carol Hazel’s home in rural Rock Falls. There they were, clearly having fun and defying the heat with the garage door open, fans blowing and music flowing. The band features the Hazel brothers, Josiah, 22, and Daniel, 19; Joel Wetzell, 18; Micah Green, 21; Hunter Seidel, 20; and Marcus Castillo, 20. Seidel and Castillo will be unable to make the band’s next show, Saturday during Sterling Main Street Music Fest at Grandon Civic Center. But that’s OK. The band is flexible in that way. They have to be. Josiah lives in Chicago. Wetzell attends Western Illinois University, to which Daniel will transfer this fall, after going to school near Chicago. Green lives in Dixon, where he works for Mirror Landscapes.

An eye exam is a good idea, especially if things are starting to look a little fuzzy around the edges.
