Meet… Fascinations Grand Chorus

Written By Mike Greenblatt
Fascination Grand Chorus

Stephanie Cupo and Andrew Pierce make up the Jersey City duo called Fascinations Grand Chorus. Their Summer Love EP is “color-soaked indie-pop that taps into retro theme park glamor to pay tribute to long summer nights,” according to the duo. It’s music for hopeless romantics. So was their 2019 self-titled debut. But then came their 2022 Terror In The Night and all bets were off, as horror was the watchword. But now, they’re back on bright, poppy Brian Wilson-styled smiles, complete with analog synths fluttering in the sun, bright percussion and the kind of vocal harmony that augers in vibrant soundscapes of perpetually sunny effervescence.
