“definitely one of the most unique bands out of jacksonville….”
— Benny, Owner, The Walrus
it begins…
LIMO SCENE assembled to answer a simple question: can an original song be constructed using a tiny slice of music from Leonard Bernstein’s instrumental score for the seminal 1984 film “Ghostbusters”? Short answer - yes. In so doing, Mason and Paul realized their respective talents in electronic music and new wave could (and should) be applied to creating totally fresh tracks under the LIMO SCENE moniker, unmoored from the Ivan Reitman supernatural comedy classic. LIMO SCENE lives.
“limo scene and ‘low cost cobra’ are offering a ride into electronic-dance jollies.”

“…the most fun band in jacksonville.”

“you can tell they care about their performance…they really show their passion for their art….”
— Benny, Owner, The Walrus
The band
Mason on keys and bass brings the meticulous detail and texture of electronic and industrial music to the project while handling mixing and production. Paul sings and plays guitar, shaping his tone in the mold of cassette-era new wave. Each embraces their influences and perspectives to produce the unique LIMO SCENE sound - richly detailed but accessible … and infinitely danceable. LIMO SCENE’s live shows feature original video composition and high-energy execution to absorb the audience into an immersive experience, blowing the doors off venues like The Walrus, Rain Dogs, 1904, Underbelly and Jack Rabbits in the 904, and hot spots like Stardust Video and Iron Cow in Orlando. The band’s recorded music, including their first single Camera + Chrome released on Halloween ‘22, captures the stunning symmetry of this electronic-meets-new-wave fusion. Their first album, Low Cost Cobra, dropped 6/30/23 with new releases stacked up for the future.
“leaving the last show…all the town looked made of neon…i felt cool.”
