A hard-driving Southern rock unit based out of Palestine, Texas, Blacktop Mojo's fiery blend of post-grunge, classic rock, and metal falls somewhere between Soundgarden, Black Stone Cherry, and Lynyrd Skynyrd. Founded in 2012 by frontman Matt James and drummer Nathan Gillis, the band eventually morphed into a five-piece with the additions of bass player Matt Curtis and guitarists Ryan Kiefer and Kenneth Irwin. They released their debut album, I Am, in 2014, followed by a heavy bout of touring that saw the group sharing the stage with a wide array of heavy hitters, including Bon Jovi, Sammy Hagar, Candlebox, Darryl “DMC” McDaniels, Black Stone Cherry, Shaman’s Harvest, Pop Evil, Puddle of Mudd, and Drowning Pool among others.

Amazing live! Every band member is very talented. I was impressed with the interchanging of instruments between the group with the lead singer playing bass and guitar at one point. His vocals are deep, soulful with a Southern rock vibe. He has such range and depth that leaves you captivated yet curious as to why they are not headliners. One of the most underrated bands in my opinion. The only thing disappointing with his concert was the fact that they didn’t play long enough I was left wanting to hear more.
The Barrelhouse Ballroom Chattanooga, TNThese guys never disappoint! An amazing show with three killer opening bands. We drive ten hours to see them here in Tulsa at the Shrine. Which was a great venue with an awesome staff and bar. Fast fair priced drinks, great vibe. Thanks Matt and the gang for another amazing show. BTM killing it! We drive to Shawnee the next night for the next show. Changed up set list, amazing covers and cool venue also.
The Shrine Tulsa, OKDidn’t know what to expect from this small venue. These boys blew my socks off , them boys can play their asses off . I feel bad because the crowd was super small and the way these guys sound and play they deserve a much bigger audience. They need publicity and let people know they are here and ready go. I’m sure we will see them in arenas soon enough. Looking forward to the next time I can see them
Encore Tucson, AZI came across Blacktop Mojo some years ago. I took a chance on seeing a band I knew nothing about and have been a fan ever since. When I heard they were opening for Nonpoint, I booked a hotel, and drove the hour and a half to the show. They did not disappoint, putting on a show, although not as long as when they’re headlining. But a great show all the same. It was quite the magical night. Nonpoint and Blacktop Mojo, two killer high energy bands.
Hard Times Cafe - Four Mile Fork Fredericksburg, VAThis band never disappoint's! They play with such heart and soul it's contagious! They had everyone on their feet and dancing! From their spot on covers to their #1 original music they are a band to be reckoned with. To see them live is truly a treat they sound just like their records and then some. They come alive in a soulful rocking explosion on stage. See them live you will never be the same they will touch your true Rockin roll soul.
