From the string quartet and distorted guitars in “Van Gogh Blue†to the haunting violin in the melancholy “Josephine Baker’s House†to the tenor sax/trumpet duet in the Miles Davis tribute “Kinda Cool†. . . “Undeniable†delivers a new sound for the modern cabaret. Retro Metro’s second album takes their sound a few steps further into pop music but still maintains the lush, elaborately orchestrated mood of “Gauguin Women.â€
Retro Metro is made up of three of Hollywood’s busiest musicians. Scooter Pietsch has written music for hundreds of film and television projects. He also has a thriving concert music career under the name H.E. Pietsch. Scooter writes and produces the music of Retro Metro.
