LEAD VOCALS In the words of Angel Blue... Music is a part of me and always will be. I remember picking up a hairbrush at 4 years old and climbing onto my grandparents coffee table during a Sunday dinner singing at the top of my lungs. I was a shy kid but when I heard music it went thru me and I was someone else. I don't remember a time when music wasn't playing in my home. My mom was a collector of old 50's records and early rhythm and blues artists. She'd play them as we were getting ready for school until we were getting ready for bed. Matter of fact, the night before my mom passed away she called me and said, 'What would you do if I died?" of course I was speechless to hear that question. Then one of the many things she said was, "If I died tomorrow I just want you to know you could sing before you could talk." she passed away the next day and i never forgot what she said. Since then, music was always a way to purge my soul. I have enjoyed this musical journey and the ongoing discovery of developing and learning. No matter how far away I go I realize that being yourself is where its at. |

GUITAR/VOCALS Mike discovered his MOJO at the tender age of 8 years old when a Series 10 copy of a Stratocaster caught his eye at a local flea market. "You could say it was love at first site." says Mike. His aunt bought that guitar and ever since the guitar has been an influential part of his life together with great musicians such as: Stevie Ray Vaughn, BB King, Albert Collins and Buddy Guy, just to name a few. Already at 24 years old, Mike has opened up for some of the great legends he has been influenced by such as: Johnny Winters and Charlie Musselwhite. Mike was the the driving force behind his popular Pittsburgh band Broken Mojo. With a sudden death of one the band band members, Mike and the Prophets almost seemed destined to meet when the Prophets lead guitarist had to move out of town. Their paths crossed perfectly! So you could say there are two driving forces headlining on the stage! Angels blue's vocals + Mikes mojo guitar = ELECTRIC!!! |
