Info

J Mascis and The Fog is a project of Dinosaur Jr. front man J Mascis. Mascis played all the instruments and sang on the first Fog album, “More Light”, which was recorded in Mascis’ home studio and released on Artemis Records in 2000. When it was time to tour, he enlisted the help of legendary bassist Mike Watt (FIREHOSE, The Minutemen) and drummer George Berz (Dinosaur Jr.). The trio toured the US, Europe, Japan and Australia, playing a mixture of songs from “More Light," Dinosaur Jr. back catalog, and Black Flag and Stooges covers.
In Europe, they were frequently joined onstage by Stooges guitarist Ron Asheton. Now, with two new Dinosaur Jr. studio albums under his belt, Mascis is ready to get fogged in again. The current lineup consists of bassist Dave Schools (Widespread Panic, Stockholm Syndrome) and Kyle Spence (Harvey Milk, Fiddlehead, The Tom Collins), both of Athens, GA.
