Chin is the name of an ancient Chinese skull. He's brought us luck and an amazing original rock and roll sound. We trust you won't make fun of Him or make Him angry in any way. Chin is real, and He lives inside each one of us. Sort of. We hope you'll accept Chin as a part of your life and bask in His Rockin' Mojo. Do you believe?
Many people ask why we named the band Chin's Mojo. Frankly, I can't tell you the whole story because parts of it don't comply with some laws. I can tell you that Chin is the nickname of a human skull that was recently purchased on ebay. I think that's all I can tell you.
Chin's Mojo provides something that is hard to find... an experienced band that plays rock music that also knows how to create a great song. We make each piece fit and deliver a sweaty, gut performance... Our show is right up front, and it's compelling to see it happen. On more than one occasion, Tom has announced to an audience "My objective tonight is to sing so hard that I pass out." We leave nothing on the field. Chin delivers.
Chin's Mojo is currently performing throughout North Texas. We hope you enjoy our music and will keep in touch.

-------------Nothing To You (Acoustic set) -------------
Here's a video from an acoustic show we did. It's shot from a handheld camcorder, but at least you get to see Ignacio playing the concertina. The song is "Nothing To You".
Lyrics:
You say that I have let you down - once again;
Or maybe it's nothing to you.
You tell me: You were feeling bad.
There's blame all around,
But it could be nothing.
[Chorus]
It's just not fair when the words that leave you
Will take you back but they're breaking me,
Do you think that it's going to get better
From just an Apology?
Then facing the fact that you need me to stay, is
Driving you mad, want to throw it away.
No wonder the things that you feel everyday
Could be nothing.
[Verse 2]
What is dignity? Something else to lose.
Maybe it's nothing to you.
We cannot sit down now - alone in the same room.
Maybe it's nothing.
-----------------------------------------
-------------More (Acoustic set) -------------
Here's another video from a recent acoustic show we did. It's shot from a handheld camcorder. It's quite a contrast to our usual rock version. The song is "More".
Lyrics:
{Verse)
Why don't you take up my offer?
It's a measure of who I am.
Can I have your attention? it's the
Only language that I understand.
If I take too many chances,
I'm desperate for your approval.
If I am overreacting,
It's just measure to get closer to you.
{Chorus}
What are you waiting for?
Can you give me what I need?
Why can't you give me some more?
You don't give up anything.
A stranger was seated next to a little girl on the airplane when the stranger turned to her and said, 'Let's talk. I've heard that flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger.'
The little girl, who had just opened her book, closed it slowly and said to the stranger, 'What would you like to talk about?'
'Oh, I don't know,' said the stranger. 'How about nuclear power?' and he smiles.
'OK, ' she said. 'That could be an interesting topic. But let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the same stuff - grass - . Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, and a horse produces clumps of dried grass. Why do you suppose that is?'
The stranger, visibly surprised by the little girl's intelligence, thinks about it and says, 'Hm mm, I have no idea.'
To which the little girl replies, 'Do you really feel qualified to discuss nuclear power when you don't know s***?
