Mojo Nixon...

Some of the neighborhood hipsters think I'm out-of-it, since Lady Gaga and Jason Beiber aren't on my radar screen! Well, turns out they don't have a clue as to who "Mojo Nixon" is--so take that! Probably don't know Kinky Friedman either.

 

Like Paul (Simon, not the apostle) said: "(they're) so unhip, that when you say "Dylan", they think you're talking about Dylan Thomas, whoever he was--but it's alright, Ma--everybody must get stoned."

 

Mojo is known for his "psychobilly" style of music, recording such singles as "Burn Down The Malls" and "The Amazing Bigfoot Diet."

 

OK--so he's not so mainstream Pop Culture, he's very "real" and always surprising. And that sweet old single cut-away Gibson guitar, full size hollow-body with f-holes. the classic "Florentine" model. That guitar alone more than compensates for his last name, in my book!
