WAITING ON MONGO / THE PHRYG / MINETTA — live event
A power funk septet, WOM is an immersive experience that can only be described as a soulful journey that pushes the limits in the 4th dimension of psychedelic grooves. With strutting guitar riffs, transcendent horns, and heady organ depth, the live performances take you on a cathartic journey where you shed the weight of the world with everyone in attendance. Traversing the inner workings of the human soul, everything seems to be in its right place when the Mongo party hits full throttle. Comprised of Mike Susino [guitar, vocals], Johnny Carlson [bass], Anders Carlson [saxophone], Mike “Mongo” Iatesta [keyboards], Matt Iatesta [drums], Harry Carlson [percussion], and Bruce Krywinski [trumpet]. WOM has relentlessly displayed a level of musicianship that continues to impress both music critics and fans alike, winning awards in their hometown of Asbury Park for consecutive years. With a permeating aura of soulful energy, that illuminates every venue, the band is on a collision course for new locations to spread the love that is their music. Brooklyn based power funk outfit The Phryg (pronounced like reFRIDGErator) is led by Bryan Walters and Collin Patierno. The two met while studying classical music in college and bonded over their love for NYC’s ever evolving live music scene. After clocking in hundreds of live shows and incessant jamming in their living room, the friends formed a unique musical connection. Their musical tastes and influences were so wide-ranging that it lead them to form a group unbound to one genre and fluid enough to jump between and fuse styles.
