Whether playing as a duo, trio or full band (including drums), Carol Moog on harmonica, with Don Evans on guitar and vocals, consistently draws in crowds with fiery and soulful blues, R&B, funk and jazz-influenced music. With performance credits that read like a Who's Who of Rock and Roll, Don Evans' stage time includes years playing and recording with Billy Joel, Dirk Hamilton, and Eric Burdon of the Animals' fame. He has appeared on countless studio tracks both as a guitar player and vocalist. The variety of his influences generates a creative and diverse sound and repertoire, ranging from a tender ballad to the full force of rocking blues.

For the very best in traditional blues, classic R&B, swing and jazz, Moog often does acoustic work with longstanding duo partner Randy Lippincott, in addition to Delta great Garry Cogdell, bassist Lenny Fatigati or Charlie Hilbert. Highly experienced, professional musicians, all are skilled in tailoring their sound to fit the needs of a venue, whether for volume level, musical selections, listening or dancing.

Some Reviews:

Philadelphia Inquirer: ”..the band rocked with an hour and a half of raw, raucous, gut-felt blues...people who had never met were hanging off each other’s necks, dancing, and good buddies were slapping each other on the back and bopping like they didn’t care.”
Philadelphia Daily News:  “Female harmonicat Carol Moog shines..”
News of Delaware Valley:  “Moog is big on the emotive sound.. ’I like the simplicity of the blues and the harmonica is a perfect expression of some of the feelings that come through the blues’ says the veteran blueswoman who counts Paul Butterfield, Dinah Washington, and Sonny Terry among her musical influences.”
The Triangle:  “...bluesmen Junior Wells and Buddy Guy appeared..The warmup act was the No Alibi Blues Band.  The harp player had an excellent sound...as if she grew up listening to Junior Wells.”
And, this from Rich Curtis, who received the Versatility Entertainment & Image Award Healthy Music Matters (formerly Philadelphia Friends Entertainment Coalition) this year:  “The Dukes of Destiny returned to the Mermaid Inn in Chestnut Hill last night and it was a party from the first downbeat...A couple of friends stopped in and made music with us. ...this was the first time that I had played with Carol, who I've seen on the Philly circuit for several years. Be it the Mermaid or Goat Hollow or Gloria's in Philly's Fairmount neighborhood, Carol gets around and has become a class player. Huge sound in a small package. She's got the goods”.
