Ming Chen asked, and the MulletCast delivered! When Ming mentioned he wanted a full band live in the A Shared Universe PodcaStudio, it seemed only appropriate to reach out to Waiting on Mongo who rolled the full band horns and all in and jammed after hours at podcast HQ!
Waiting on Mongo is an award-winning funk band from Asbury Park, NJ. Since the current lineup’s formation in 2016, They’ve been featured at events such as Jams on the Sand, Convention Hell, and other local events. They have also been on several tours spanning New Orleans, Charleston, SC, and Burlington, VT.
The band features seven devoted musicians on guitar, bass, keys, drums, and horns, bringing funk and jams inspired by Phish, James Brown, Chicago, The Grateful Dead, and more.
Waiting on Mongo released an EP titled “Just A Taste” in 2017 and celebrated it’s release at a sold-out show at the Saint in Asbury Park, NJ. The band recently emerged from the studio and more music is imminent! While this whole experience was epic, being up close & personal for a performance of Shark Attack, which I tend to bounce around to like it's my theme music was killer! Check this episode for lots of interview and background about the band, and three killer tracks from Waiting on Mongo.
