If you’re looking for new acts to watch for 2017 we’d like to introduce to Mojave Nomads.

As the Black Sheep of the Utah Music Scene, Mojave Nomads are shaking things up in the region predominantly dominated by pop music culture. The band made their live debut on Halloween 2014, and recorded their EP Black Sheep at Indie/Folk artist Joshua James’ Willamette Mtn Studio a few months later. The success of Black Sheep led to spins on national indie radio stations, appearances on local news/radio outlets, and a number profile gigs including a Real Salt Lake Halftime performance as well as opening for national touring acts such as Highly Suspect, Smallpools, Run River North, James Supercave and Algiers.
