"The Jonny Mogambo Band – a Denver-Vail based band – rocks the house."

Jonny_Mogambo_Band: Are you planning a party in the Denver area? And have yet to book a great band? I just came across this article currently being featured on The Denver Daily News.
Apparently, the Jonny Mogambo Band is the cat’s meow for Denver-area bands. A Denver Daily News employee attended the recent wedding for the publication’s Assistant Editor Peter Marcus and his wife, Barbara. They thought that the Jonny Mogambo Band “rocked the house.”
In the music industry, wedding bands are typically considered cheesy and good talent is tough to find.
But on occasion, a group like the Jonny Mogambo Band plays a wedding reception and gets everyone — including the reclusive uncle — out on the dance floor to shake their stuff, elevating the festivities to a whole different level. It doesn’t hurt that Mogambo and his talented backing band aren’t just a wedding and private party band; the legitimate talents play original music, too.
However, when it came to a wedding in Breckenridge earlier this month, Mogambo gave attendees exactly what they wanted, combing Johnny Cash, Talking Heads and The Rolling Stones among many other bands and songs.
“I think we play a different array of music and we play it well,” said Mogambo. “We’re not anywhere close to a cheesy band … People appreciate having a band that plays a large amount of music and also has some originals and originality to them.”- The Denver Daily News - Denver Daily News


"Vail Society: Ultimate Halloween Gala Rocks the Ritz"

VAIL VALLEY, Colorado — Known for being “the” Halloween bash in the Vail Valley, the Ultimate Halloween Gala proved to be a ghoulish good time Friday evening at the Ritz-Carlton, Bachelor Gulch. The theme, a Night at the Opera, fit the elegant venue. Partygoers attending this event tend to go all out in designing their costumes and this year was no exception. I love to see the enthusiasm and verve...There is still time for a good costume.
The Jonny Mogambo Band kept the crowd hopping into the night dressed as scary monsters themselves. Jonny and the boys did a great job of rocking the house. - Vail Daily -Betty Ann Woodward


"Jonny Mogambo Band rocking the roof off the party"

To the Jonny Mogambo Band – WOW! Friday was awesome – our private apres show!!!! And on Saturday, you absolutely made the party! We had so many people shout across the dance floor, “WHERE DID YOU GET THIS BAND????” Thank you for ROCKING THE ROOF off of the Game Creek Club and for finishing so strong after we figured out the scheduling snafu. It worked out great – our legs are still tired from dancing. - Amy Lincoln - Vail, Co.

Bio

Are you ready for something NEW in 2019? The Jonny Mogambo Band has played dates nationally, internationally and all over Colorado for many years.  But, now, in this day and age where true rock music is hard to find in the pop world, they have something NEW.  After three years of re-working their sound, writing all new material focusing on the art and craft of good rock music songwriting, they have a brand new recording titled "American Sexy." They do not use bakcing tracks like most popular bands these days.  They stay true to an original style of rock music with real instruments playing real NEW music derived from years of loving and learning from bands that do it right like The Rolling Stones, James Brown, P Funk and SRV.  If you like band that truly rock and play music with good guitars, keys and horn parts, a tight rhythm section with a deep pocket and good lyrics and vocals, you will LOVE the Jonny Mogambo Band.  They are timeless as they draw on influences from rock, funk,blues and soul and meld it into something new and needed for 2019.
