Rock’n’Roll spoken here… The sound of DownTown Mystic is “vintage yet modern”. The music is

rooted in all the great traditions of American Rock‘n’Roll, blending storytelling songs with

vintage guitars and analog recording into a unique style that owes nods to Buffalo Springfield,

The Byrds, The Beatles and Rolling Stones but somehow manages to sound as contemporary as

anything currently available. DownTown Mystic is the alter ego of American Rocker, Robert Allen,

whose passion for “old school” recording borders on obsession. Robert adds, “I grew up listening

to all these great records and their sound and style stayed with me”.

Jola Recchioni "Her Substitute"

GENRE/ BLUES/ROCK

I burst onto the blues rocking scene in 2023 when I finally could pursue my

music passion. I released my first album Wrongtime in spring 2024 and my

second Gone To Find My Blues in Dec 24.

Jola wanted to create song with a punchy rhythm, a spirited song about a

girl not wanting to be a substitute for a girlfriend her boyfriend just broke

up with.

LeFroy "5 Days In May"

GENRE: COUNTRY/AMERICANA

Remember the feelings you had when you were getting to know THE ONE? Lefroy’s new

single “5 Days In May”, originally released by the Canadian country rock band Blue Rodeo,

takes us on that journey.

A relationship can hit you by surprise and when you least expect it. The song tells that

story—beginning with “5 Days In May” when two people met, not sure if it was something

that would last. And now, many years later and still together, they look back fondly on those

memories.

We hope this song is a reminder that even in turbulent times, “sometimes the world begins

to set you up on your feet again.”
