The musical heart of the band, harmonica player Carol Moog is known to be a "huge sound in a small package." Moog played for many years before launching and performing with the No Alibi Blues band. With vocalist Zan Gardner, the band quickly developed a loyal following at some of the area’s top music venues.  Beginning in 1987, Moog continued to play with what became the original Zan Gardner Blues Band.  The high energy blues and funk band appeared with such legends as John Lee Hooker, Koko Taylor, Junior Wells, Buddy Guy, Jimmy Rogers, Leon Russell/Edgar Winter, John Mayall and Roy Buchanan.

In her exceptional acoustic performances, Moog has appeared with such notables as Saffire, Ronnie Earl, Guy Davis, Kelly Joe Phelps, John Hammond and George Urgo.

Moog's musical influences are varied and include Sonny Terry, Little Walter, Sonny Boy Williamson, Paul Butterfield, Hank Crawford, Fats Domino, Mose Allison, Muddy Waters, Dinah Washington and James Cotton.

Over the years, Moog has played Riverblues, Mellon Jazz Festival, Tremblant International Blues Festival, corporate events such as QVC's Pioneer Studios opening, the Philly Gold Awards, and the Philly Fringe Festival. Locally, she plays at many of Philadelphia's finest music rooms, such as Warmdaddy's, Tin Angel and World Cafe Live.
