BOB Mogan

PLAYING DRUMS WAS MY FIRST MUSICAL DESIRE. NOTHING BETTER THAN JUST JAMMING. THESE DAYS I MOSTLY JUST DRUM ON DEMO TRACKS. I DID LIVE TV AND RADIO SHOWS BACKING UP GRAMMY WINNING CHICAGO BLUES ARTIST J B HUTTO. WE ALSO OPENED UP FOR SUCH ARTIST AS SAM & DAVE AND JAMES COTTON.I AM DRUMMING ON A LIVE CD ENTITLED "J B HUTTO AND THE NEW HAWKES LIVE AT THE SHABOO".I ALSO WORKED WITH PREACHER JACK AND SLEEPY LA BEEF. I HAD THIS BURNING DESIRE TO LEARN HOW TO PLAY A GUITAR AND WRITE SONGS SO I TOLD MY PARENTS THAT I WAS DROPPING OUT OF NORTHEASTERN UNIVERSITY TO MOVE TO A "HIPPY COMMUNE"IN THE BERKSHIRES.MY OLD BAND MATES WERE LIVING THERE(WASTERN MASSACHUSETTES) .I WALKED AROUND EVERY DAY WITH A GUITAR IN MY HANDS TRYING TO" BOND" WITH IT AND SINGING ABOUT ANYTHING THAT CAME TO MIND. I'VE WRITTEN FIVE OR SIX HUNDRED SONGS AND STILL HAVN'T LOST THE DESIRE TO WRITE MORE. I'VE SPENT YEARS PLAYING IN BANDS,DOING DUO AND SOLO GIGS ETC. MOVED TO NASHVILLE TEN YEARS AGO. WROTE THE THEME SONG FOR THE NASHVILLE AND ATLANTA KNIGHTS PROFESSIONAL HOCKEY TEAMS.(ATLANTA DID A PROMOTIONAL VIDEO WITH TEAM PLAY(mostly fights) WITH MY SONG "KNIGHTIME" PLAYING IN THE BACKGROUND. I'VE GOT FOUR CD'S AVAILABLE: " BOB MOGAN AND SEABREEZE" kind of rock &roll,recorded in Gloucester Mass. "HITTING A BRICK WALL" a mixed bag of Nashville recordings "GLOUCESTER FOLK TUNES VOLUME ..1" solo acoustic vocals and harmonica "COMING ON STRONG"a collection of female oriented songs that i wrote(sung by Debi Champion). CURRENTLY, I'M MOSTLY WRITING, DEMOING AND PITCHING SONGS. STILL DOING THE WRITERS NIGHTS (I hosted a writers night at Tootsies). GOT A DAY JOB AS THE RESIDENT CARPENTER AT THE NASHVILLE ZOO. (great ,creative job) You know what they say in the old country:"once a songwriter,always a carpenter" (that's going to be the title of my next cd.) I LIKE TO CHALLENGE MYSELF TO SUCCEED AT ACCOMPLISHING PERSONAL GOALS. I'VE NEVER BEEN GOOD AT MAKING MONEY. NEVER WANTED FORTUNE OR FAME. I HOPE TO BE A FINANCIALLY SUCCESSFUL SONGWRITER SO AS TO PROVIDE FOR MY FAMILY. ANY MONETARY GAINS BEYOND THAT WILL BE ALLOCATED(one of the big words i learned at Northeastern University) TO REASEARCH AND DEVELOPEMENT TO FIND A CURE FOR NF2(nuerofiber matosis 2). THIS IS A DEVASTATING DESEASE THET MY SON,ROBBY, HAS.
