Studio 52 is a community artist space located in the heart of Allston, and is proud to support the Boston music scene and local artist community.


Next week the New Jersey Township of Scotch Plains will dedicate a street in the name of Pat DiNizio, the late Smithereens frontman who died in December at the age of 62. The tributes to DiNizio have come in from far and wide over the past few months, and now Boston’s Salem Wolves get into the game with their cover of “Blood And Roses.” You know, the one with that unfuckwithable bass line. “BearTone Studio invited us to take part in a locals-only ’80s tribute record,” the Wolves write on Facebook. “One day, one song. To honor the recently departed power-pop giant Pat DiNizio, we picked The Smithereens’ 1986 hit ‘Blood And Roses.’ Rev the engine, pop in this cassingle and try to live when you don’t belong.” Words to fly by.
