Florida-based MOFRO calls their sound "front-porch soul," and the label fits. Well-worn, broken-in and somewhat funky like an old wicker rocking chair, MOFRO's laidback vibe is steeped in a swampy blues that just comes naturally to band founders JJ Grey and Daryl Hance. Like tomatoes canned in the heat of summer, MOFRO's music preserves a timeless flavor that's enjoyable all year long.

Dinosaur Jr. reunites for this brief series of shows, featuring original members J Mascis, Lou Barlow and Murph. All of the band's previous records have been reissued, in time for a new generation to enjoy. You can hear echoes of their sound every time a post-grunge band slugs out a chunky riff or when a jam band noodles its way to guitar nirvana. Dinosaur Jr was the perfect vehicle for singer/guitarist J. Mascis' unwieldy, gut-bucket guitar leanings, fusing them with singer-songwriter melodies and obfuscating lyrics that have become the hallmarks of grunge rock.
