Congrats Matt Johnson!
THE ROYAL WE's beloved MATT JOHNSON scooped up an award at this years ENCY Awards.
The ECNY Awards are a fast growing awards ceremony celebrating the Emerging Comics of NY. This years show was held at Comix comedy club on January 28th at 8PM and it was bigger than ever. There was a red carpet and press coverage and everything!
Fun Fact: THE ROYAL WE was nominated for Best Sketch Group in the 2004 ECNY Awards, but sadly, WE didn't win.
This year, MATT and collaborator/photographer Keith Huang were nominated for Outstanding Achievement in Flyer or Postcard Design for the amazing one-sheet they did for The Apple Sisters...and it frickin' won...because it's great!
Look at it!
It's award winning!
And while you're at it, go see an Apple Sisters show. Click here for details. The show stars ROYAL WE best friend, Kimmy Gatewood.
And let it be noted The Apple Sisters also took home the gold at the ECNY's for Best Musical Comedy Act! Congrats!
So a big pile of congrats are due to MATT, they love you...they really love you!
