On this episode, I was joined by the extremely talented singer/songwriter, pianist and guitarist of The Dead Pens, Ms. Danah Koch. Danah has played in a variety of projects and is quickly breaking into the Baltimore music scene as an original solo musician; she's takin' the Mid-Atlantic world by the proverbial horns.
 
You may know Danah from The Dead Pens or filling the walls with her hauntingly beautiful voice at various clubs around town, but today she’s here to tell us how it all started and where it's going - and she dives deep. Join me in welcoming Danah Koch to the MOG.

From Red Valley Nursery to Circuit Villains to his collaborative musical concept, Liquid Robots, Steven Thomas is the 'Scriptwriter' in his own 'Dopamine Machine' dream and has made a hell of a name for himself in the Baltimore music scene.

At the core, his main musical projects are alternative rock, indie or pop fusion, but Steven Thomas isn't just a musician, he's an artist in the truest form. For Steven, 'Failure' isn't an option and he's here to tell us how his journey started and where's going!

Today, our bass player series continues. Rob Landon is best known as the bassist from Baltimore's hard rock and metal outfit, From Nothing, but he stopped by to discuss a new project he's working with; a heavy and melodic Mid-Atlantic hard rock group that calls itself, Lenne.

Jesse Johnson is a funkadelic bassist and co-writer for a variety of Mid-Atlantic bands. Some may remember Jesse Johnson from his alternative rock years in Baltimore's own Yours Ever Truly, but these days he's bringin' the beach and the streets to your stereo with his melting pot, eclectic reggae rock quintet, The Vibesmen.

But, when he's not doin' that, he's rockin' with his hard rock group Joint Operation or his blues funk outfit, Yutzi. Help me in welcoming this wealth of sound and good vibes, Mr. Jesse Johnson, to The MOG!

The other day, I had 25 year jazz improvisation reunion with wing and meat connoisseur Mr. Brian Rumbley. Brian has played in a variety of Mid-Atlantic groups over the years and has an insatiable appetite for music and pushing his own audio boundaries and knowing what’s possible when it comes to filling up the low end.

He's made a hell of name for himself as a dependable, all-purpose musician. Join me in welcoming Rumbles to The MOG!

From Peabody Conservatory to Arizona Bay to We Love the Underground to Goodbye July to Rise Among Rivals to his cover band, Fantasm, Patrick “One” Sise “Fits All” has established himself as work horse guitarist in the Baltimore music scene. 

During his time in We Love the Underground to present, and I’m sure his other band mates would attest, he’s as good a musician as he is a friend.
 
When he’s not on stage, you can find Patrick studying for his insurance exam or sluggin’ back strawberry shakes from Chick Fil-A.
 
 Join me in welcome Mr. Sise to THE MOG.
