In late 2016, SS-20 drummer Dave Blame, started recruiting band members Billy Bronson and Mitch Linz (also from SS-20) to form a new band departing from the classic hardcore sound of SS-20 and focus more on a street punk sound. After a few months of writing and a few shows, Chris Doherty, of Boston Drunk Punk band Gang Green, was added to the line up. With the line up finally set, a sound was honed, combining elements of hardcore, street punk, and rock and roll.

Mr. Scientist is an original band from Cincinnati, OH. Formed in 2016, their infectious and unique sound brings an uplifting energy to every room. Playing their own blend of punk and ska, the trio puts a modern touch on classic sounds melded with an evocative message of hope and growth through life’s tribulations. For fans of Rancid, Sublime, Green Day, The Mighty Mighty Bosstones.
