Fascinations Grand Chorus

Fascinations Grand Chorus is a Jersey City-based indie-pop duo made up of Stephanie Cupo (vocals/keyboards) and Andrew Pierce (drums), who initially started as rivals before joining forces to create vibrant, retro-inspired music. They are known for their modern take on bubblegum pop and surf-rock, crafting catchy tunes that evoke the spirit of 1960s pop with a fresh, indie twist. Their debut album, *Presentations of Electrical Confectionery* (2019), exemplifies their "audio pop experiment," blending nostalgic melodies with energetic production. The duo has continued evolving their sound through multiple releases, including EPs like *Anglesea* and albums such as *Terror in the Night* and *Neon Symphony*, often drawing on themes of nostalgia, love, and classic pop craftsmanship.

Their music often features bright harmonies, vintage keyboard riffs, and story-rich lyrics that mix sweetness with a bit of wistfulness, capturing a playful yet emotionally resonant vibe. Fascinations Grand Chorus also embraces visual nostalgia, creating retro-themed music videos shot on Super 8 film to complement their sound. They remain active, releasing new material like the 2025 single "Static Heartbreaks," which reflects on the emotional power of retro media and soundwaves. The duo’s dynamic is described as a friendly competition that pushes their songwriting and production forward, making their music a joyous celebration of disposable entertainment's timeless appeal.
