Mo’ Mojo is a spontaneous, uplifting, and kid-friendly “Pardi Gras” band that seeks to create a sense of community through dance. 

This female-fronted group defies genre labeling by incorporating many sounds from Louisiana, including traditional and original Zydeco, Cajun, New Orleans Blues, New Orleans R&B, and Mardi Gras music. 

Mo’ Mojo’s songs range in subject matter but ever present is the idea of connection, exemplified by titles such as “Together in Love We Drown,” and “We All Got the Same.” 

One of NEOH’s longest running bands (since the mid 90s), Mo’ Mojo has performed at festivals, concert series, clubs, and dances across the U.S. 

The band has served as U.S. State Department musical ambassadors, sharing their value of community and connectedness all over the world.

Benny’s vision was to create a sound that blended the best of soul, rock, jazz, and world music, with lyrics that spoke to the human experience in all its complexity, touching on themes of love, self-discovery, and the ups and downs of life. Benny Lava & The Guavas have crafted their own distinctive sound that’s as soulful as it is infectious. Their music is a sonic journey that takes listeners on a ride through passionate ballads, groovy jams, and high-energy anthems.

Known for their electrifying live performances, the band has garnered a devoted following in Akron and beyond. Benny Lava’s commanding stage presence and the tight-knit chemistry among The Guavas make every show an unforgettable experience, leaving audiences craving more!
