Artist description Two stubborn bastards who've been writing and performing for 25 years, and who refuse to give up. Rich and Dan bring a totally different set of experiences to the table. The common denominator that unites them, is a love of silly, clever lyrics, big vocal harmonies and hooks that burn themselves into your brain. Lay this on top of a rock-solid groove and jangly guitars and you have some serious Mung!

Artist History The fellas met in 1985 when Rich was looking for a guitarist for his original band. Dan was quickly hired and the Mung Brothers collaboration was born. The operation started with an old four-track recorder and a Dr. Rhythm drum machine. The Mungsters have each gone their own way and collaborated with many other writers, but they always come back home to where the chemistry is. Currently, the Mung Brothers write and produce out of two well-equipped home studios in New Jersey. They are always upgrading, which drives their respective wives up a wall.
