Biography

The argument has been made that rock 'n' roll is dead. Well, if it is, The Mojo Gurus have refused to attend the funeral. These four guys from the Tampa Bay area of Florida play as if the burden of saving the genre lay squarely upon their shoulders.

Led by singer/songwriter Kevin Steele, the Gurus come off as determined to remind us of something too many people have forgotten... the spirit in which rock 'n' roll was originally intended. Shake 'em on down! Backed by Doc Lovett's rhythm and booze guitar riffs, Vinnie Granese's thick-and-black-as-Mississippi-Delta-mud bass runs and Sean Doyle’s cannon shot voodoo drum beats, The Mojo Gurus perform real deal rock 'n' roll with enough strut and swagger to make most of today's flavor of the month bands pale in comparison.

GONE is the new CD by The Mojo Gurus. It is 15 mercurial tracks of Rock ‘n’ Roll as it was meant to be. The Mojo Gurus are a band that defies genres. They are as adept at psychedelia (Step Into The Light) as they are at Memphis Soul (Fifty Miles). They can play a heart wrenching blues (All I Do Is Cry) and a pretty but poisonous love/hate ballad (Never Met A Girl Like You Before). They can combine all these elements seamlessly and deliver a message in one song (Love Somebody). Most of today's bands suffer from a certain narrow minded tunnel vision. No one ever told The Beatles to stop experimenting with all their different styles, thank God. Apparently no one told The Mojo Gurus either.

This versatile band led by singer/songwriter, Kevin Steele have managed to incorporate the sounds of their varied influences yet still create their own powerful, unique sound. Prepare to be dazzled by the songwriting and musicianship of The Mojo Gurus.
