Music of the Mountains: Where to be and what to see -- Jeremy Mohney

Send us Fan MailBoulder resident Jeremy Mohney has always had a passion for swing music. His grandfather often drove him around playing tapes of swing bands led by the likes of Glenn Miller, Tommy Dorsey, and Artie Shaw. He played in his school’s jazz band, and he wanted to keep playing that music style once he left school. He’s been gigging since his high school days in Boulder High, and he started The Jeremy Mohney Band over a decade ago as an outlet to consistently play.Among the people who have been involved in the band over the years are guitarist Chris Herbst, bass player Conner Hollingsworth, drummer Chris Carland, trumpet player Sonya Walker, guitarist, upright bassist, and vocalist Andrew Bonnis (currently based in Cleveland with his own solo career), bassist Hunter Roberts, guitarist and vocalist Greg Schochet (he and Mohney have played in each other’s bands), Gypsy Swing Revue lead Elliot Reed, guitarist Dan Buller, drummer Greg Corcione, bassist and trombonist Gary Sloan, guitarist Alex Heffron, and bassist Will Kuepper, many of whom have been featured on Mohney’s previous musical releases. The current lineup consists of Mohney, Cantor, Hollingsworth, and Carland.Our theme song is courtesy of singer-songwriter Brittney Wagner. Stream her record Better off Dead here.
