Mojo Ballroom
Time: Mondays @ 11 pm
Program Host: Famous Jonny Mambo
Contact: famousjonnymambo@gmail.com
Famous Jonny Mambo grew up in Detroit, Michigan
and was heavily influenced by the amazing musical scene that has thrived in
that tough environment in the face of numerous economic woes, horrible
weather, and numerous fatty foods.. Touched one night by a Mojo spirit whose
happy smiling face glowed in the moonlight, while spraying graffiti in a
back-alley, Famous Johnny realized that his calling in life was to be part
of the effort to help save radio from the pits of despair, numbing
dullness, and overall ill-repute. Famous Johnny knows that real people are
far more intelligent and creative than commerical radio programmers would
like to believe.
Description of show:
This has been a surprisingly difficult question to answer as it requires
verbally labelling something that is not static, defies quantification, is
perpetually evolving, is so high you can't get over it, so low you can't get
under it, and so wide you can't get around (sort of like that Psychedelic
Shack song that The Temptations played when Motown went psychedlic-1967?).
I have tried using the terms "Pop Casserole Swirls" to describe the music
that I play (which to my way of thinking is an apt description), however
these terms, understandably, lead to exponential forms of confusion for
some. At this time, I would best say that I play eclectic (eclectic is too
flat of a word-does someone have a better word?) forms of imaginative pop
that are held together by a funky-syncopated- form-of-mojo-cohesion that
emanate(s?) both from the heart of my soul and my inner-tuchas. I know this
answer is insufficient but it's the best I got, right now. If you can help
me to define this better, please do so.
