I write and play songs for Corn Mo and my band .357 Lover.

Corn Mo played in a jazz band. Then, a country band. Then, he did a recording session with another country band for a Kentucky Fried Chicken song contest. Then, he played in a rock band called Illusion. Then, he played a SIEL OR400 in a metal band called Without Warning. Then, he fronted another metal band called Tiruth. And then, high school was over and he found an accordion. So then, he joined a juggling troupe and provided a soundtrack for the jugglers. When that ended, he started a duo with another fellow named Mauve Oed. They opened for Tiny Tim.  And then, Mauve Oed left. Then, he used his OR400 synth for an art rock band called The Dooms UK. And then, they faded. And then, he started .357 Lover which became the band of what he tried to convey as solo artist. He decided to do both. Then, he joined a sideshow circus called The Bindlestiff Family Cirkus. He began touring and having adventures. He went to Alaska and played accordion for his aerialist girlfriend. He went to Europe with a circus cabaret and played on the streets. He opened for The Polyphonic Spree.  They had an extra bunk.  In order to ride on the bus he had to join the band.  So, he opened for them and then put on a robe after his set.   He enjoyed that band.  Then, The Polyphonic Spree and toured with David Bowie. That was a good time.  He hugged Bowie. And then, he left the Polyphonic Spree. After that, he toured with a burlesque group. They were pretty. And then, he did some shows with David Cross, Nick Offerman, Ben Folds, Tragedy, Wheatus and They Might Be Giants. It has been an excellent time for him. And it keeps getting better.

357 LOVER is Corn Mo’s band. Ron, Dave, Steve, Avi and Corn Mo. They play songs that Corn Mo plays solo and more.  They’ve opened for Ben Folds and They Might Be Giants. They’ve been the backing band for Andrew WK and John Cameron Mitchell (Hedwig). They went to SXSW stopping at different towns on the way and back to their hometown of Brooklyn, NY. They put on a rock opera at the Ars Nova Theater.  They’re currently rewriting it.  They released Diorama of the Golden Lion which follows the ep Your Favorite Hamburger is a Cheeseburger. The next release is on vinyl and it’s called The Purchase of the North Pole.

Press quotes:

actually holds up on its own.”

the most beautiful voices and natural charms
I’ve ever experienced. He is a grand man.”

“Corn Mo uses this quirky soundscape to compose mini-anthems, heroic passages and chaotic polkas. If his spiritual father is Freddie Mercury, then his spiritual uncle is Tiny Tim.”

    When his life was ruined, his family killed, his farm destroyed, Job knelt down on the ground and yelled up to the heavens, ‘Why god? Why me?’ and the thundering voice of God answered, ‘There’s just something about you that pisses me off’ — Stephen King
