Mojo & the Nighthawks On Youtube.

Welcome Youtube Community ...

It was April 14th, 2007 ... Yes the hardcore fans showed up. Even after a 32 year absence! The word spread and tickets were sold out within days. This time the fans of the band brought their sons and daughters to the concert. It was as close as entering a time machine as we may ever experience.

Some of the musicians featured in this Blog have not seen each other since their last reunion back in 1975. To get together on such short notice, with very little rehearsal and pull a show off in front of a sell-out crowd, is truly a testament to their character and talent. Its one of those moments that will not be forgotten. Of course, it helps that we have this Blog to share and help feed our memories of that evening back in the spring. ;)

Now I believe its time to share “Mojo & the Nighthawks“ with the rest of the world. As you will soon discover, many of these musicians are not strangers to the music world. In fact many have played with several well known musical acts. For all the newcomers I will be profiling these musicians in upcoming posts soon. So check back often ...

For a short time back in the early 1970's, Mojo and The Nighthawks were the first pick of many music lovers in Winnipeg. They never hit the charts, but it was never their goal while they were together. It was the joy of a group of teenagers playing music together and being true to their influences.

They always had a very loyal audience that has shown to have lasted generations. This was proven by the overwhelming show of support at last spring's reunion ... So for all the people checking this blog for the first time ... Welcome. It's a pleasure having you stop in and share some blues together .

The musicians we are speaking of are as follows:

Seymour "Mojo" Koblin: Drums

Gree Bae: Harp & Vocals

Leonard Shaw: Keyboards, Sax and vocals

Dave Garber: Guitar

Sandy Chochinov: Bass

Lee Koffman: Sax

Fred Dugdale: Vocals
