Hey all, we just got the signed contract back, so we are able to officially announce this fantastic news.
Our Headliner Band for Saturday Night's Concert out at the Southwest International BBQ Cook-off will be Mogollon. If you are not familiar with Mogollon, you must not be very familiar with the Arizona music scene.
They are by far the top band in Arizona and have been for many years. When I worked up in Flagstaff at the Museum Club in 1991, they were the top draw band that we had at the time. They have played numerous times at the Tempe Fiesta Bowl Block Party and have a huge following. We are very excited to have them as our Headliner for our event. It has just taken the event to an entirely new level.
Here is their bio from their web site:
Mogollon, (pronounced Mug-ee-own) began in the small Northeastern Arizona town of Overgaard. The name of the band is derived from the "Mogollon Rim".
Playing music was a good way for a few high school buddies to impress the girls and to combat the boredom of a small town. After a few performances around the area, people agreed this "hobby" of theirs had potential to become more. And they were right!
Today, Mogollon has earned the reputation as one of the Premier Country Rock Entertainment groups in the West and continues to keep their high standard. Their scope of performing ability is truly amazing! They can play about anything, from Hank Williams to Pink Floyd to their original written songs.
With great vocals, incredible guitar wizardry, dueling fiddles and a high energy stage show, Mogollon has left people of all ages and all musical tastes wanting more!
