Moss Agate

NEVER TOO OLD TO ROCK AND ROLL!!!!!!!!

About Me

Moss Agate is a fairly new band made up of members of many bands past. Bob Lyon, Mark Minshall, and Len Janson have been playing together,off and on, for 30 years and many bands. Joel has been playing with us since 1999. He joined us when we were still "Killgore’s Ghost" and doing a lot of cover tunes. With well over 100 original songs written so far, we are finally ready to break out and be heard!!!! We just released our second cd-"PERSPECTIVES" in June, 2007. It is currently available on itunes, Amazon mp3, Napster, Rhapsody, and Sonic. We are not touring at the moment as we are working on cd number 3. pushing for a release soon, we have had some setbacks due to health problems with a couple of members, but still working on it when we can. We play rock, blues, and just about everything else. Please check us out and turn us on to your friends. Thanks for viewing and listening! Bob Lyon

Sounds Like: MOSS AGATE sounds like MOSS AGATE!!!! Mix all of our influences together along with my own demented mind and you get all sorts of things!!! I am trying to give each and every album (cd) its own flavor and sound. We try to be original in as many ways as we can. These tracks are recorded live without an audience. They aren't perfect, but, this is what we sound like! ENJOY!!! CDs are available through our regular web site - mossagate1.com
