Countrified experience at Alchemy Tavern

Posted by Stephen Centanni | Nov 5, 2014 | Music Briefs | 0 |

Rosco Bandana has given the world one of the freshest sounds to come out of the Gulf Coast in a long time. The seven-piece has won fans with their Americana rock sound, a musical hybrid of Southern rock mingled with garage and laced with countrified vocals.

Since the release of their album “Time to Begin,” Rosco Bandana has crossed the highways and byways of America logging performances at Lollapalooza, the Yonder Mountain Harvest Festival and elsewhere. The group won over local fans at SouthSounds and the Alchemy experience should be no different.

Denver Hawsey will be joining the bill. Hawsey hails from the badlands of North Mobile County and has been slowly gathering new fans through live performances and via the Internet. Hawsey is a proper match for Rosco Bandana, as singer-songwriter who maintains equal footing in the rock and country worlds. Hawsey will be performing cuts off of his album “Drifter.”


Rosco Bandana, Denver Hawsey
Date: Friday, Nov. 7, 9 p.m.
Venue: Alchemy Tavern, 7 S. Joachim St., www.alchemytavernmobile.com
Tickets: $10 at the door and through Ticket Biscuit

About The Author

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.
