DYSBANDED - Another Broken Night

In front of the stage, sweating with the beat. Loud guitars. Hoping you get invited to an afterparty in the Hollywood Hills.

DYSBANDED is a crew of Boston music veterans who happened to find each other hanging out in Hollywood. First came Jonathan Anastas, then bassist Jaime Sciarappa, drummer Al Pahanish, guitarist Johnny “Rock” Heatley, and finally vocalist, bassist, and keyboard player Mark “Muddy” Dutton.

For their latest track "Another Broken Night," DYSBANDED teamed up with Kyndal Inskeep from the Voice, Season 17. Apart from the obvious connection to the Boston Hardcore scene, this founding group of friends also shared a deep love for the Sunset Strip, and all the accompanying mythology; the legendary shows, the secret clubs, the record labels. Bugsy Siegel hanging out at Café Trocadero. Chris Farley doing his Matt Foley routine at The Comedy Club. The Doors. Los Lobos. Black Flag. X. Bad Religion. River Phoenix at the Viper Room. The Whisky a Go Go. Lemmy's seat at The Rainbow.

The story doesn’t go much deeper than that. "Another Broken Night" is a love letter to the Sunset Strip of yore–before Instagram, before iPhones, when it was still about the music, and the people, and the way it made you feel to be in front of the stage, sweating with the beat. Loud guitars. Hoping you get invited to an afterparty in the Hollywood Hills.
