The Mojo Gurus are a Tampa Bay area-based roots rock ‘n’ roll band consisting of Kevin Steele on lead vocals and harmonica, Doc Lovett on guitar and vocals, Vinnie Granese on bass and vocals and Mark Busto on drums. The group’s music has been described as “rowdy blooze, rockabilly and honky-tonk…The Mojo Gurus deliver rowdy rock ‘n’ roll with a whole lot of twang and plenty of roadhouse attitude, at once evoking the Stones, Sun Records and the thrill of life in the fast lane.” (Wade Tatangelo, Creative Loafing)
On Let’s Get Lit with…the Mojo Gurus, the band combines healthy doses of straight-ahead rock ‘n’ roll with a southern flavor, hard-core honky tonk, rhythm and blues and even a little surf rock – all played with the energy and swagger of a Saturday night tent revival meeting – for a sound that recalls groups like the Georgia Satellites and Jason and the Scorchers.
The band will support the release of Let’s Get Lit with…the Mojo Gurus with constant touring both in the U.S. and Canada, including two special shows during the upcoming SXSW Music Festival in Austin: the 7th Annual Florida Bandango at the Yard Dog Folk Art Gallery on March 18 from Noon-6PM; and the True North Records/Linus Entertainment Showcase at The Chuggin’ Monkey on March 20 from 5-7 PM.
