Song Review: moe. - “Rocky Mountain Way” (Live, March 23, 2024)
Though it is known for stretching songs waaaaay out, moe. stayed close to home on “Rocky Mountain Way.”
As captured on professional video March 23 in Colorado (natch), moe.’s interpretation follows Joe Walsh’s instructions carefully. The band’s newest member, keyboardist Nate Wilson, handles the mic, proving himself the group’s most-tuneful lead singer in the process; guitarist Chuck Garvey provides the requisite talk box; and the rest of the band works hard to give Wilson a solid floor.
And they do.
It’s the kind of thing that might make hard-core moe.rons pine for a more-adventurous sonic exploration. And it’s also the kind of thing that might make softer-core fans think, finally.
Grade card: moe. - “Rocky Mountain Way” (Live - 3/23/24) - B+

Rob Georg “Won For Y‘all” now at radio: Radio/Media Download Here
Tumblr media
Country music has always been regarded as an American sound bred in the southern regions, but if fans have learned anything from the likes of keith urban, country music can come up from anywhere in the world. This leads us to the German radio cowboy himself, Rob Georg. Very few would imagine a cowboy from Germany, but Rob Georg just does not wear the label, he lives the lifestyle. He spent the first chapter of his life as a professional equestrian athlete in the discipline of cutting. Here cowboys work cattle from horseback, all in true country fashion. He has won various championship titles that have led him to participate in the highly endowed tournament, the world series. For an entire decade Georg was traveling across American cutting arenas with his trainer Dean Terry. With the many miles spent together on the highways, the two soon connected a deep friendship. When terry passed away in January 2018 and Georg’s beloved soul horse “primetime shorty” also crossed the rainbow bridge just one month later, a world broke down for the cowboy. To clear his head, he decided to take a break from ranch life. And so, the passionate amateur singer flew to Nashville “Music City USA” Tennessee to work on his singing skills with a professional vocal coach Kristin k. Smith (Katie Mac, Jillian Steele, Casey Derhak, Smithfield, and Josh Dorr to name just a few). encouraged by her words, Georg began recording his music and never looked back. Read the full article

When terry passed away in January 2018 and Georg’s beloved soul horse “primetime shorty” also crossed the rainbow bridge just one month later, a world broke down for the cowboy. To clear his head, he decided to take a break from ranch life. And so, the passionate amateur singer flew to Nashville “Music City USA” Tennessee to work on his singing skills with a professional vocal coach Kristin k. Smith (Katie Mac, Jillian Steele, Casey Derhak, Smithfield, and Josh Dorr to name just a few). encouraged by her words, Georg began recording his music and never looked back. His debut single “push that horn”, a tribute which he wrote in memory of Dean Terry, was released in June 2018 and is still being played in every cutting arena in the U.S. Since then, Georg has released several country singles further demonstrating his songwriting talent, as well as his vocal prowess. Georg also knows how to captivate his audience live, whether on his first U.S. tour from Denver to Seattle, on stages on Nashville Broadway scene or the biggest country music events in Europe, such as the country music meeting berlin or the western experience in the Netherlands – the cowboy casts a spell over the audience. In 2020 Georg’s debut album “radio cowboy” was released to much praise which to date has racked up more than a million streams on Spotify alone. The official videos have been viewed over 2. 7 million times. So far, five singles have been released to radio, reaching an incredible number of 17 #1 positions on various U.S. charts. His latest radio release “this old house” just spent two weeks at #1 in the U.S. national radio hits country chart and has made the jump to #1 on the new music weekly charts. Fans and music critics are equally enthusiastic: “… A great, very catching album, which is certainly one of the strongest “German” productions of the past 10 years …” country.de (Germany’s largest online country music magazine) “Honestly, there isn’t a sub-par track on the album, mostly because of the wealthy, enticing voice of Rob Georg, oh so appealing.” rawckus.com (Rawckus magazine reviews new releases in all genres of music) “… Raises the bar in terms of passion, dedication and commitment …” artistrack.com (Artistrack magazine evaluates new releases in all music genres) “Rob Georg’s skills and talent is unquestionable and every song is more beautiful than the last” Indiepulsemusic.com (indie pulse music magazine reviews new releases of all music genres) Georg had an insanely good year 2020 – with his album release, he not only celebrated chart placements, invitations to special live concerts, such as the country radio seminar in Nashville in February, or streaming numbers – he also won his first international music award at the new music awards “breakthrough country artist of the year”, and the fair play country music red carpet award in the Netherlands “amazing male voice country pop original”. So, it will not surprise you that Georg and his co-writers are already busy writing tracks for the second album. In his Covid19 lockdown project, a Spotify podcast called “country music ain’t dead,” of which the first episode was released in early December 2020, he supported other country artists from around the world by interviewing them and then introducing them to his 450,000+ social media followers. Management companies and artists are jockeying for interview slots on the bi-weekly artist talk, which has been booked full into late summer 2021 and was published bi-monthly. On top of the struggle all artists had to face in this unexpected moment, bad news were adding up for Georg. Both of his parents got diagnosed with severe illnesses. So, he moved into his parent’s house for several months, first for supporting his mom while his dad had to undergo several surgeries with extended hospital stays, then for the caretaking of his father and for helping him to recover from the severe surgical procedures, spending the nights watching over mom and dad at their house writing new songs. “I never wrote my lyrics and recorded my vocals with so much devotion and emotion like i did for these coming songs!” Georg says followed by a deep sigh. If there’s one thing Rob proved to us with the two songs “Ghost” and “Carry The Wind” from his debut album, it’s that his special talent is to turn heartbreaking experiences into wonderful pieces of music that are outstanding. As soon as the travel ban was lifted in late 2021, Rob finally was able to plant his feet on us ground again, just to be back in the studio and record the new material, of which one new song is being published every 6 weeks from March 2022 on. With winning the New Music Award in the category “Country Breakthrough Artist Of The Year” in 2022 and being nominated for the Josie Awards in the categories “Artist of the Year 2022” and “Song of the Year 2022” (“My Mother’s Arms”, the second release of the new recorded songs), he managed to get back into his career stronger than before. But after all, he still is the cowboy that he used to be. Together with his wife Mel Georg, he runs a ranch in the Odenwald forest, Germany, with horses, cattle, sheep and a bunch of border collies, which Mel breeds and trains to be stock dogs. Asked why he’s still doing the chores himself, Georg answers “the animals are my life, and i can’t think of doing something else. This is where i find my inspiration. This is what keeps me grounded.” Georg’s songs reflect the life he leads and the stories he lives to tell.

Bob Weir, Grahame Lesh, Nicki Bluhm and the Revivalists joinedPhil.moe Lockn’ Festival Arrington, VA Sunday, August 27, 2017
Phil Lesh played a full set with moe. called “phil.moe”  Originally moe. bassist Rob Derhak was going to play as well, but recently began cancer treatment, so he took the show off, since Phil was playing bass. Rob watched the stream at home, while remote controlling a tiny robot on stage with his bandmates. Guitarist Al Schnier emotionally acknowledged that Phil really stepped up; Al said he’s…

Moe. Return to NYC to Play the Beacon Theatre on Saturday Night
It’s amazing to think, and maybe easy to forget, that moe. were once an upstart jam band at the dawn of a newly evolving scene that had already bred Phish, Widespread Panic, Blues Traveler and others and was soon to create seminal, unifying scenes at long-gone venues like New York City’s fabled Wetlands Preserve. Now, some three decades later, moe. are part of a still-thriving, veteran vanguard—a connoisseur’s jam-rock crew that still attacks songs with the same ferocious energy and still insists on propulsive, forward-chugging jams that don’t have much time for ambient noise or shapeless noodling. A moe. show moves.
“We’re not going to do something for 17 minutes because it’s wholly self-serving if the audience is disinterested and it’s not the right thing for us to be doing at that time,” guitarist Al Schnier said in November. “However, the only way to know is to be sort of in the moment and be present and to be a part of that, but everybody has to be a part of it. Otherwise, we’d be better off just in our garage doing this and playing this music for ourselves.”
Moe. feel fun but as the intrepid Mr. Schnier notes, the band also feels like family, especially here. On Saturday they’re back at the Beacon Theatre—a room they first headlined in the heady days of 2002—and there you’re likely to meet a few folks who remember moe. from the Wetlands or Tramps, or Nightingale’s, and maybe a few who’ve seen them play semisecret shows under aliases like Monkeys on Ecstasy—and maybe a few who have a few moe.downs or throe.downs or snoe.downs under their belt. And maybe a few who’ve seen shows with guests or themes, and maybe even a few who were there a year ago when bassist Rob Derhak played his first shows since being sidelined by cancer treatment—an emotional return that’s prompted a run of exciting new moe. originals and, as of 2019, among the healthiest and most interesting shows the band’s played this decade.
“It’s very much a family atmosphere and people have a stake in what we do,” says Schnier. “It’s part of the culture of our band and our group of fans and everything. People come for the long haul, and it’s really awesome.” —Chad Berndtson | @Cberndtson

Timmy Tucker by moe.
One of their more extensive jams, “Timmy Tucker” is a Moe classic. The song has been a live staple since the 90s and features a very active bass line from bassist, Rob Derhak.

Influences
I’ve been thinking a lot about bass, and a lot about bass influences. 
There’s absolutely no way to get around McCartney. If he’s not a primary influence, he’s a secondary influence on everyone. There’s just no way to get around the fact he wrote the book on rock bass playing in a small group environment. 
Going completely the other direction, I have to name Chris Wood. His late 90s/early 00s work with MMW is a huge influence. The groove, the note choices, how to play in while playing out. If I can bring just a little of that to what I’m doing in a rock context, it’ll be amazing. 
Somewhere in the middle of the two is Nicholas Godin, of Air. I think the first bass line I learned that I actually wanted to learn how to play was “La Femme d’argent” from the album Moon Safari. 
Then there’s Geezer Butler. I’m not even certain how to talk about what he does on the first 6 Black Sabbath records. He takes McCartney’s approach and melds it with his jazz leanings in this blues/horror show music. I’ve spent too much time trying to play like Geezer without listening enough to what he’s really doing. Yeah, he plays the riff, but then you get the song “Black Sabbath” or “War Pigs” and he’s just completely out. All the swing is between him and Bill Ward, with Tony just crushing everything. 
There’s a ton of others. Chris Murphy from Sloan, Allen Woody from Gov’t Mule, Dan Pifer from God Street Wine, Ol’ TP from The Ominous Seapods, Rob Derhak from moe. Paul Chambers, Ron Carter, Paul Jackson, Christian McBride. Carol Kaye, Kim Deal, Esperanza Spaulding. Charlie Hunter, Michael Anthony (yes, Michael Anthony), Cliff Burton, John Paul Jones. 
The list keeps going. But who I am today? Yeah, I guess it’s those four guys.

Rewind: moe. - Tin Cans and Car Tires (1998)
You know you’re getting long in the tooth when you followed the Grateful Dead and the bands that came behind them have now been around for more than a quarter-century.
moe. - lower case with a period - is one of those groups. And as it preps the 25th-anniversary, remastered vinyl edition of 1998’s Tin Cans and Car Tires, Sound Bites listened back to the original LP to determine if he still loves it like he once did.
He does.
This is a collection of relatively compact songs by a band that was already stretching waaaaay out on stage, but was looking for radio success with songs like Rob Derhak’s funky rocker “Stranger than Fiction” and Al Schnier’s plaintive “Letter Home.”
It didn’t work. And moe.’s more-adventurous side, represented here with such Frank Zappa-inspired tracks as “Spaz Medicine” and “Head,” with their tricky time signatures and, in the case of the former, freak-jazz horn charts, became the group’s go-to formula for better and for not better.
The chief moe.rons were young cats still finding their sound when they made Tin Cans and Car Tires and filled it with Allman-esque slide guitar and other homages. This youthful searching is evidenced by the gleeful too-fucking-high refrain in the otherwise-morbid “Plane Crash;” their nod to the Grateful Dead’s “The Golden Road (To Unlimited Devotion)” on Chuck Garvey’s angular “Hi & Lo;” and the unabashed nicking of “Smells Like Teen Spirit” on “It.”
There’s reggae in the form of “Happy Hour Hero” and twangy county in “Queen of the Rodeo.” And while the songwriting isn’t particularly original, it’s inspired and infused with the sound of hungry musicians looking for their bite at the mushroom.
In the years since Tin Cans, moe. became its own thing with its own sound and style. And while that is the point of every group - Dark Star Orchestra and that ilk excepted - Sound Bites enjoyed moe. most when it proudly wove its influences into its original music and wasn’t above playing an entire Furthur Festival-opening set dedicated to the Dead’s “That’s it for the Other One” suite.
Grade card: moe. - Tin Cans and Car Tires (1998) - B+
