Be ye Merry

Posted by Stephen Centanni | Oct 18, 2017 | Music Briefs | 0 |

Band: Trevor Sensor, Peter Oren
Date: Friday, Oct. 20, 9 p.m.
Venue: The Merry Widow, 51 S. Conception St., www.themerrywidow.net
Tickets: $8 advance /$10 day of show, available through Ticketfly

Those venturing to The Merry Widow for this show will be met by the sonic embrace of opener Peter Oren, a singer-songwriter whose warmth can be mesmerizing. With a baritone voice and modern folk instrumentation, Oren’s rich, smooth sound embodies the spirit of Leonard Cohen in his early days.

Oren is preparing for the release of his album “Anthropocene.” Its title track and “Falling Water” serve as a proper introduction to Oren’s world.

Trevor Sensor returns to Mobile with cuts from his latest release, “Andy Warhol’s Dream.” Judging from the album’s tracks, Sensor continues to keep his alt. rock truly alternative both lyrically and musically.

“Andy Warhol’s Dream” is an expansion of Sensor’s already unique sound. Its production elements highlight a thoughtful collection of tracks crafted by the talented hands of an artist. If Sensor’s live performance of these songs match the album, then the crowd is in for a memorable night of music.

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.
