The Mofo Party Band, from Fresno, California, is a band that combines blues and rock and roll. They have released 4 albums and well over 200 songs.

Members

The Mofo Party Band consists of Bill Clifton on guitar, Daniel Burt on drums, Cobra Finney on the classic stand-up bass, and front man John Clifton for voice and harmonica.

Music

The Mofo Party Band has been entertaining since 1989, and has played thousands of gigs, including the Mardigras parade, numerous blues festivals (including the San Francisco Blues Festival; the Alley Festival in Longview, Texas; the BB King Blues Festival; and eight times at the Sonora Blues Festival).

In July 2007, The Mofos performed at the Belgium Rhythm and Blues Festival (one of the largest blues festivals in Western Europe) and the Luxemburg Jazz and Blues Rally attended by 23,000 people. They also had a 2-week tour of Poland that included performances at the Polish Boogie Woogie Festival and the Satyr Blues Fest.

The Mofos have also worked as a backing band for such great blues artists as harp-master Johnny Dyer, the great James Harman and the late Little Walter guitarist Luther Tucker.

The band has recorded four critically-acclaimed harmonica blues CDs on the Vivid Sound label: "Ten Dynamite Hits", "Call the Doctor", "Voodoo Dolls and Jungle Drums" and "The Sound of MoFo Party Band". They have two more CD projects in the works for 2008; a studio album and a live album recorded for broadcast on The National Public Radio of Poland.
