We challenged more than 50 musical artists to cover disco songs. This is what happened.
Worcester Magazine
If you ask most musicians, regardless of what kind of music they play, to give an opinion on disco, it s most likely going to be negative. When asked, Worcester musician Daniel Gay said he thought it was, “vacuous and soulless, hedonistic and cocaine-fueled.”
“I used to say, Disco is why God created punk,” admits Pamela Tiger, of the band Punk Rock Treehouse, “and I still do, because I still don t like it much more than I ever did back then.” Veteran Worcester rocker and poet David Jahn says, “Once upon a time, I despised disco. Found much of it genuinely unlistenable. But held pretty much anything commercially successful in contempt as well.”

Are you a local musician who could use a songwriting spark as we ride out the (hopefully) waning days of pandemic restrictions? Or perhaps more time at home has left you with oodles of ideas that need an outlet? Local nonprofit Music Makes a Difference may have the perfect project for you: a Complete the Song contest.
During pre-COVID times, the Madison-based organization regularly hosted concerts with a dual purpose: providing a paid gig for musicians and also aiding various local charities. With live shows on pause for most of 2020, the group hosted a virtual Battle of the Bands in June and July; weekly winners moved on by fans voting on submitted videos. The Complete the Song contest will work in a somewhat similar fashion; 10 contestants will complete four new songs, with weekly voting on artist video submissions beginning April 8.
