Liquid Groove Mojo is one of the top bands to ever come out of Arkansas. They have a live CD to their credit and released internationally their studio disc "Cradle to the Grave". The album has topped the European Indie charts and is receiving wide play on internet radio.
A very limited release Acoustic Set CD is available. Recorded completely live, captures LGM in their rawest form, completely stripped down, and all acoustic. Also, the band had the track "Cradle" included on GRITZ new cd, "Handpicked and Homegrown".
Combining blues and rock, these guys can swing from heavy, soulful blues to a funky blues/rock-southern feel. Liquid Groove Mojo has been compared to bands like The Black Crowes, Arc Angels and Govt Mule. The band appeared at the Crossroads Musical Exposition and the International Blues Challenge as well as touring the mid-south. A European Tour in October 2006 saw LGM visiting Netherlands, Poland, Belgium and Italy. The band was nominated for top 10 honors for band of the year, and top 5 for album of the year in Europe in 2006.
Prolific songwriting makes this bands sound timeless as well as contemporary.

*****Quotable Liquid Groove Mojo*****
*This album has "....captured the Gov’t Mule/Allman Brothers sound.
Greg Calbi, Senior mastering engineer, Sterling Sound, NY,NY
*Real Musicians making real music. This album has been very well done.
Jeff Brocaw, Gold and Platinum award mix engineer
*"Cradle to the Grave" really contains all the trademarks of a magnificent Southern-Blues-Jam-Rock album. Bluesy rockers, full guitars, magnificent solos, brilliant hooks, a lot of slide, great songs and a lot of jam feel. This album is an overriding output and takes second place to nothing.
Portion of a review from Just For Kicks Music, Germany
*Liquid Groove Mojo, from Arkansas, sounds like a synthesis of Gov’t Mule (without keyboards), the Allman Brothers...and Tishamingo...In addition, Joe Pitts is one of the hottest slide guitarists in the business. He is reminiscent of Warren Haynes and Tim Brooks.
Portion of a review from SRA Musicshop, Germany
*This album represents four musicians trying to capture the best vibe possible, creating and playing as one. This album is better the perfect. It’s real.
Portion of a review from Barchen Records, Germany
*Storm Warning is blues par excellence. The guitars surf on the heavy foundation, crying and complaining to themselves from the pickups. The best piece of the song is working towards the brilliant refrain: storm warining...in your eyes.

*"9 out of 10".
Rocktimes, Germany, on "Cradle to the Grave"
*Nicely laid back with lots of opportunities for great guitar playing. Sometimes slow and dreamy, sometimes forceful and substantial. Delicious bluesy guitar playing, lovely slow vocals and a sound that is both timeless and contemporary.
Portion of a review from the Skynet website, Germany
*Liquid Groove Mojo gave us an interview and gave us the opportunity to better know this southern blues rock jam band, and we’d like to congratulate them on this new album, for us, one of the best of the year 2005.

*Gov’t Mule, Deja’ Voodoo ****1/2, Zakk Wilde, Black Label Society ****1/2, Liquid Groove Mojo, Cradle to the Grave ****1/2.
Southern Rock.de website, Germany
*Liquid Groove Mojo’s music is a hybrid between rock ’n roll and blues-flavored music but, is overall their own concoction. This is an excellent band with players not too caught up with any "star" syndrome whatsoever, and who seem to each go out of their way to let each other shine.
