Whenever a new venue featuring original music opens in Mobile, locals should consider it a wonderful thing. Sitting on the edge of Bienville Square, The Mystic Lounge is the Azalea City’s newest establishment offering cool libations and even cooler sounds. Filled with a ton of retro charm, The Mystic Lounge has featured local artists such as Leland Clay, Brett LaGrave and DJ Mr. Pink. These sets from local artists have served as a soft opening for The Mystic.

The grand opening of this new LoDa bar will feature a band that tends to get the crowd rowdy wherever it performs. From the first note, Phunk Blue Moon fills its set with unbridled energy and versatile talent. Its sound is an eclectic mix of hip-hop, rock and funk that quickly captures the crowd. The lyrical talent of front men Phile Phil and Sir Nicholas are laid out smooth, as a spiral of rhythm and sound envelopes the crowd.

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.
