Mob Towne Revival after-party

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

Band: Mob Towne Revival
Date: Friday, Feb. 22, 9 p.m.
Venue: Brickyard, 266 Dauphin St. (Mobile), 251-219-6488
Tickets: Call for more info

On Friday night, the Order of Inca will take to the streets of downtown Mobile for its yearly Mardi Gras promenade. Afterward, the LoDa Entertainment District will welcome revelers who want to take the party into the wee hours, with Brickyard holding one of Dauphin Street’s most raucous Inca after-parties. On offer will be not only seasonal hospitality but also the return of one of Mobile’s most beloved bands.

From the first note, Mob Towne Revival was unlike any band found in Mobile. This group specializes in live-instrument hip-hop at its finest. Mob Towne takes this musical style into overdrive with musical arrangements steeped in robust funk, jazz and blues. While the band’s verbal assassins shower words on the crowd, the band (complete with horn section) will show no quarter with a blitzkrieg of jams. Anyone new to the city or visiting for Mardi Gras won’t want to miss this show.

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.
