Mojo’s Pick of the Week: Six Weeks Sober
Sep 6, 2010 Pick of the Week
The two fisted punch of Six Weeks Sober is a killer mix of radio-friendly hooks and melodic hard rock. Hailing from San Franicsco, it’s not surprising that their sound is a little Death Angel and a little Papa Roach. They will be playing the Battle of the Bands at the DNA Lounge this Friday September 10, and then will be heading to Nashville to record their debut album with Tesla’s Troy Luccketta! Keep an eye out, cuz Six Weeks Sober may be the next big thing from the Bay Area!

Mojo’s Pick of the Week: Billy Connally
Jun 28, 2010 Pick of the Week
Simply put, Billy Connally is one of the Bay Area’s great unknown rock guitar heroes. Over 27+ years of guitar playing experience in numerous bands shines through on his just-released solo album entitled “The Silent Canvas”. Fans of Joe Satriani will not only be impressed but blown away by the pure understated musicianship and emotion in the Billy’s heavy melodic guitar compositions. He’s currently booking dates with supporting band The Billy Connally Project — they opened for Pat Travers earlier this month — so catch this classic in the making if you can!
His thirteen song collection of guitar driven instrumentals entitled “The Silent Canvas” is now available for sale on Amazon and iTunes, and selected songs are streaming on his MySpace.

Mojo’s Pick of the Week: Eko Animo
May 24, 2010 Pick of the Week
They’re French, but you wouldn’t know they weren’t straight out of New York or L.A. – Lyon’s Eko Animo is a little bit White Stripes, a little bit PJ Harvey, all piss and vinegar and indie fire. They had me at hello.
