DownTown Mystic – “Mystic Highway Road Trip”
DownTown Mystic is back with a fresh set of tunes, and “Mystic Highway Road Trip” brings a upbeat energy that hits the spot for sunny drives. The six track EP kicks off with “Superstar – To Sir Elton with Love Mix”, which jumps right into a driving rhythm that sets an easygoing tone.
The production is crisp and full of life. Studio veteran Joe DeMaio engineered the record at Shorefire Studios and contributed guitar solos on “Superstar” and “Shadow Walk”, giving both tracks a sharp edge. The rhythm section of drummer Steve Holley and bassist Paul Page keeps the groove steady, while Jeff Levine adds organ and piano flourishes on the uncut version of “Somebody’s Always Doin’ Something To Somebody”.
There is a genuine warmth running through tracks like “Live”, featuring Jerry Fierro on harmonica, and “Losing My Mind – Re-Mix”, where guitarist Lance Doss lends his skill. The quick “Fly – Buddy Holly Mix” wraps things up with a nice touch of classic rock nostalgia. Everything feels hand crafted, honest, and full of good energy.
I love “Mystic Highway Road Trip”. It is a fantastic collection of songs that shows off incredible musicianship and clean songwriting. If you enjoy this release, I highly recommend checking out DownTown Mystic’s previous releases to hear even more of his catalog.
