Zydeco
music is all about energy and heat - and the Mo’ Mojo
Mama Band brings both on! The band's music adds Cajun
melodies to blues sounds from all over the south, and
the result is something positive, energetic, and most
importantly, danceable.
The Mo’ Mojo Mama Band combines the fiery sounds of Louisiana with a stage
show so dynamite they are indisputably Ohio's hottest
zydeco band. Formed in 1996 under the name of Zydeco
Jones, the Mo’ Mojo Mama Band consists of Jen Maurer on
accordion and lead vocals, Sarah Rolan on rubboard, Joe
Golden on guitar, Doug McKean on bass, and Rod Lubline
on drums.
The Mo’ Mojo Mama Band covers a lot of ground in the
genre. In addition to their own originals, a Mo' Mojo
Mama show includes staple hits from zydeco kings such
as Clifton Chenier, Boozoo Chavis, and Beau Jacques; the
new zydeco funk sounds of Chris and Sean Ardoin, and
Keith Frank; and zydeco versions of songs by Led Zepplin,
Ben Harper, and Blues Traveler. They also specialize in
Mardi Gras and other New Orleans music.
