KONGOS was one of four Phoenix rock bands chosen by the New Times to play in the Summer Of Sound concert series, opening for national act, Sugarcult, with the audience favorite to be named “Best Rock Band of Phoenix.

KONGOS won with 41% of the vote! As a result we’ll get a write-up in the annual New Times Best Of Phoenix issue and attend some sort of award ceremony.
