SCOTCH MIST + 79.5 — live event
Far from the predictable center of the radio dial lies 79.5, a station that may or may not be entirely real. The soundtrack shifts smoothly, from ’70s underground disco to addictive adult contemporary to sugary sweet girl pop. Skillfully using sophisticated jazz harmony to support addictive R&B hooks, 79.5's songs have drawn comparisons to maestros like Patrice Rushen and the Mizell brothers but ultimately resist easy categorization. Breaking onto the scene in 2012, a self-released 12-inch single named “Boogie/OOO” showed their hearts lay firmly in the dancefloor tradition, while live shows demonstrated they went a lot deeper than simple grooves. Not that they didn’t have groove in spades, with The New Yorker comparing them to such icons as ESG, the Jones Girls, and Donna Summer. Scotch Mist is a New York-based trio know for their unique blend of rock, disco, and psychedelic sounds. Consisting of Ed (lead vocals, rhythm guitar), Gianluca (bass, production), and Fern (lead guitar), the band fuses their diverse musical backgrounds to create a nostalgic yet modern sound.
