“Light In The Night” by Mise en Scene

"Light In The Night" by Mise en Scene is Northern Transmissions 'Song of the Day.'

Mise en Scene release their new album Still Life On Fire, June 30th via Light Organ Records. The trio’s tour and promotion schedule leant inspiration to the creative process for this new collection, begging the question “are you awake in your happiness?”

The band’s sound is a nod to the 90s riot grrrl in both prose and punk prowess, Mise en Scene was founded by art school friends Stefanie Blondal Johnson and Jodi Dunlop. The duo are joined by Corey Hykawy (bass) for their latest effort. Following their 2012 debut, the band toured extensively, making appearances at Primavera Sound Festival in Barcelona, a show in downtown Paris to over 15,000 people and SXSW earlier this year. Still Life On Fire is a 12-track reflective tour de force of rib-rattling guitar, vocal melodies that range from lush and playful to biting and raw.
