Young Tax Return

Posted by Stephen Centanni | Nov 20, 2019 | Music Briefs | 0 |

Band: Wax Fur, Young Tax Return
Date: Saturday, Nov. 23 at 9 p.m.
Venue: The Attic at The Blind Mule, 57 N. Claiborne St., theblindmule.net
Tickets: Call 251-694-6853 for more info

The Attic at The Blind Mule continues to serve as a proving ground for both local and touring up-and-coming musical projects that might not fit into the mainstream. This time, Wax Fur will be traveling from Birmingham to play in The Attic. This trio of young musicians has showcased its sound through two original singles. “Annual” pulls from the early days of the alt. rock movement with rubbery riffs, punchy bass and clean vocals. While “Yarn” contrasts “Annual,” Wax Fur injects an edgy onslaught of furious guitar into the band’s clean sound.

Nappie Award alumnus Young Tax Return will play local host to Wax Fur. This young artist brings two musical personas to the lineup. Young Tax Return could deliver a roughneck hip-hop manifesto that shines from his impressive verbal flow. On the other hand, he could pepper his set with tracks filled with auto-tuned modern soul/rhythm and blues with a pop edge.

About The Author

Stephen Centanni

Stephen Centanni

With the exception of two years spent at Auburn University, Steve Centanni has spent his life in Mobile County while focusing on his two passions: music and the written word. As soon as he was issued his driver’s license, Centanni began to explore the local music scene in the early ‘90s. He filled his weekend with visits classic local venues such as the Four Strong Winds Coffee House, Vincent Van Go-Go’s and Culture Shock, all of which welcomed those who had yet to reach 18. After high school, Centanni traded Mobile for Auburn to complete his B.A. in English with an emphasis on general writing. While at Auburn, he had the honor of studying under the Pulitzer-winning poet Natasha Trethewey, who served as the nation’s Poet Laureate in 2012 and 2014. After receiving his diploma, Centanni quickly moved back to Mobile and completed the University of South Alabama’s graduate program with a M.Ed. Eventually, he was tapped by the nationally distributed Volume Entertainment Magazine to serve as the magazine’s managing editor/senior writer. His time with Volume allowed him to exercise his love for both music and writing. As Volume began to fade, Lagniappe recruited Centanni as their Music Writer and later their Music Editor, where he has remained for a little over a decade. As far as his involvement in the local music scene, Centanni organized Cess Fest at the Langan Park, which was a mini-festival focused on original local music in a time when original local music was veritably taboo in Downtown Mobile. For a short time, he brought original music to Downtown Mobile as the in-house promoter for the now deceased venue Cell Block. He managed local underground powerhouse Fry Cook, until the members parted ways. Centanni has lent his bass to bands such as Keychain Pistol and The F’n A-Holes, and he toured nationally as a member of Abstract Artimus & the Torture Children. Currently, he provides vocals for the garage blues rock outfit Johnny No. Ultimately, Centanni’s experience in the local music scene as both a participant and an observer has allowed him to witness the ever-changing persona of Mobile’s enigmatic music scene, which continues to leave him with more questions than answers.
