Bio - Long (5 paragraphs)
PENSACOLA MIST is the high-contrast synth-pop trio instantly recognizable by their electric on-stage energy, 80s-inspired powerhouse co-lead male/female vocals, and a stunning, larger-than-life customised light show. Quickly becoming a leading force in the UK synthwave scene, they deliver an aesthetic blend of cinematic nostalgia and modern pop urgency.

Signed to the internationally renowned Aztec Records, the group has garnered significant attention from tastemakers. They have received national airplay on BBC Radio 6 and BBC Introducing, while their music has been streamed over a million times yearly across more than 150 countries. Their momentum peaked with a high-profile 2025 remix of Pop Legend Kim Wilde’s single, Trail of Destruction, which featured on an official Record Store Day release.

The band's ability to perfectly blend the nostalgic sounds and cinematic storytelling of the 80s with the structure and energy of modern pop earned their latest album, Lost in Love, the #1 spot in the 'Top 100 Albums of 2022' by the highly regarded music blog Teases and Dares. Their rising profile led to major collaborations in 2023 with viral sensation Sunglasses Kid and All The Damn Vampires (KORN’s Davey Oberlin), both released via NewRetroWave. Even UK pop royalty Ian ‘H’ Watkins (Steps) has championed the band, telling listeners of his 'Friday Night H' radio show, "You are going to absolutely LOVE them."

With more than a flair for on-stage theatrics, Pensacola Mist’s unforgettable performances showcase a fully customised light show, a rich mix of live instrumentation, stunning layered vocals, and (more often than not) a whole bunch of sequins—all coming together to create a truly unmissable gig.

Following successful UK tours, a feature on NewRetroWave’s YouTube channel, and a hotly anticipated follow-up to Lost in Love, it is only a matter of time before Pensacola Mist's spectacular visuals and dark-edged synth-pop ascend to the very top of the scene.
