Listen Later

To know Corn Mo is to love Corn Mo. The singer, composer, and musician Jon Cunningham, who goes by Corn Mo, spoke to me about why he decided not to be a preacher and, instead, joined a sideshow circus. A musician's musician, Corn Mo has performed solo shows, along with his band .357 Lover, Nick Offerman, Ben Folds, Wheatus, They Might Be Giants, and The Polyphonic Spree, when they toured with David Bowie. Once you hear him sing and play the accordion, you'll gras his remarkable range, mischievous wit, and steady hands. So where can you hear Corn Mo? Well, for starters you can hear him perform a couple songs during our interview for Employee of the Month, which was recorded live at Joe's Pub. Our next live taping is Thursday, September 24th at 9:30 pm. For tickets, go to www.employeeofthemonthshow.com
