Our new original song (and music video!) is called Maggie Went Down. John and I wrote this little tale about a woman who finally put her foot down. It’s a true folk song with shades of country & western.

You can stream and buy the track at our Bandcamp page, or stream it on Spotify, Apple Music and more.

We recorded at Page St Sound Lab with fantastic recording engineering by owner Frankie Piacentini. Chris Headland of Spectravision Production directed and filmed it all, producing two great videos. The song was mixed by Larry Crane of Jackpot! Recording Studio, who has been mixing our music for ten years now. Ryan Foster of Foster Mastering applied his magic, and the result is lush!

We’re really happy with the results and hope you enjoy watching and listening!

John Baker on the Weissenborn

John played his homemade Weissenborn and the Strat- the combination of his guitars with Randy’s bass and the mandolin gives the song a rich texture. Missi played cajon, washboard, acoustic guitar, glockenspiel, egg shaker, claps, etc. With three part vocal harmonies, it’s a neat layering of folk elements, and because of that, we wanted a short “Making Of” video to pull back the curtain and show you a bit of that process: 

Randy Yearout

Randy Yearout joined Mojo Holler in July 2023 as our bass player, along with the occasional mandolin, acoustic guitars, harmonica, and (gasp!) banjo. He's a fantastic multi-instrumentalist who has a storied history in music making. We hit the ground running last summer and have performed 36 shows together so far. We are thrilled to be making music with him. If you haven’t caught a Mojo Holler show lately, come check us out this summer. 

You have sixteen opportunities to boogie with us this summer throughout Oregon! We’re playing concert halls, bars, wineries, a fair, a picnic, private parties, a clothing-optional retreat, and more! On Thursday, June 13 we will perform at Pendleton Center for the Arts. Check the link for tickets. We’re also excited to return for a performance at the Bay City Arts Center on Saturday, September 14. Check out our tour schedule and follow us on Facebook and Bandsintown for notifications about upcoming shows. Looking forward to seeing you!

We have a newly designed website! It's very functional AND beautiful, and we're so grateful to Ash Patton Web Designs. Here you can easily find our tour dates, booking info, music and video links, AND (I, Missi am excited to announce) a blog for our news and musings!

We are currently booking dates for Fall and Winter 2024/25, including corporate events and private parties. If you’d like to book a show, or you know/have a business that needs solid entertainment for an event, please reach out to Missi for booking.
