Mojo Gurus CD Release Party this Friday night at Dave’s Aqua Lounge
March 11th, 2009 by autopsy4 in News
Way back in the beginning of ninebullets.net, I wrote a piece about the band Roxx Gang. There was a period in the late ’80s when I thought they were quite simply the bees knees.
Flash forward 20 years or so to former Roxx Gang frontman Kevin Steele’s newish band, Mojo Gurus, which is celebrating the release of their new disc, Let’s Get Lit With, this Friday. The Mojo Guru’s are Kevin Steele, Vinnie Granese, Doc Lovett and Mark Busto, and they’ve just signed a multi-album deal with True North Records. Along with Let’s Get Lit, True North will be reissuing the Guru’s first two cd’s, Hot Damn and Shakin’ the Barn, on March 24. To celebrate the occasion, the Mojo Gurus are throwing a big ol’ party at Dave’s Aqua Lounge and you’re all invited. Joining the Gurus will be another one of Tampa’s shining lights, Tailgunner Joe and The Earls of Slander.
Let’s Get Lit features 13 tracks of straightforward Southern rock paired with a fifth of whiskey and produced by Jody Gray at Pro Star Recording. The press release describes the music as “bourbon-soaked, gut bucket, glam meets twang” and I couldn’t really improve upon that. It’s rock ‘n’ roll for the sake of sex, drugs and rock ‘n’ roll. The world can be saved tomorrow.
So come out, get drunk, support your local music scene and buy some music.
