Discovered on an archaeological dig in Michigan's backwoods, guitarist Nate Schuiling brings a formidable attitude to the bandstand while flailing away at his untuned axe. He leans into a song with his whole being and seemingly no concern for the chord changes and has impressed and befuddled many with his ability to find new notes where none are needed. And he is not discouraged in the least by the dumbfounded stares of his fellow bandmates who are understandably distressed. He is truly the bur under the saddle of good taste and therefore, a completely appropriate choice for Mojo Phoenix.
