Mojo Gurus ink multi-album deal
Posted by Eric Snider on Tue, Dec 2, 2008 at 8:13 PM
This just in from Brett Steele, manager of the Bay area's Mojo Gurus, about the band signing with the Canadian label True North:
True North Records and The Mojo Gurus announce the signing of a multi-album deal. The first album, entitled "Let's Get Lit With...The Mojo Gurus," will be released in March, 2009 with tour dates in the US and Canada to follow. Said Geoff Kulawick, True North's President, "We are very excited to have The Mojo Gurus join the True North roster. The band is fantastic and will certainly fit in well with the True North brand."The Mojo Gurus released their debut disc in 1999 to great critical acclaim. The bands video "Tiger Lily" received heavy rotation on Canadian music video channel Much Music. That release was quickly followed by "Drinkin' TNT and Smokin' Dynamite" which along with their powerhouse live performances helped the band build an impressive following around the world. The Gurus third release "Hot Damn!" enjoyed a four-month success story on FM radio that included over one-hundred-nineteen FM stations playing "Hot Damn!" including sixty-five CMJ reporting "core" stations.
The success of "Hot Damn!" led to the band signing with Empire Musicwerks and recording a new CD entitled "Shakin' In The Barn." The bands hard work ethic continued to pay dividends when after a NYC showcase they were handpicked by Grammy Award winning producer Jack Douglas (John Lennon, Aerosmith, NY Dolls) to be his next recording project. On "Shakin' In The Barn" Douglas captured all the energy from the band's amazing live performances. "Shakin' In The Barn" was distributed by Universal Records and spent six months on the national roots rock/alt-country charts.
Defying all labels the Gurus new album "Let's Get Lit With. The Mojo Gurus" combines southern rock, old school country, rhythm and blues, surf rock and even a little bit of soul. Produced by the band and Jody Gray the album was mastered in LA by Stephen Marsh (Jeff Beck, Muddy Waters).
