Enter your Email to join List:


Brothers Steve and Jon Rodgers, the song writing team of the long standing underground band, Mighty Purple have just finished recording their first and long-awaited, largely-acoustic album entitled "Arms And Voices". The album is a far cry from the recordings of their early years (which were sometimes noted as heartfelt yet derivative) The latest batch of songs, convey stories of the brothers' lives, spiritual journeys and friendships, told in such a way that the listener can relate to. In a world where attitude, image and fleeting success run rampant, Steve and Jon have a true longevity with their true passion for writing music and connecting with their listeners. The Brothers have a complex story that has been told in small pieces along their songwriting Journey. “Arms and Voices” is sure to have a cross generational appeal with a modern-acoustic, yet timeless and comfortably familiar sound. Steve and Jon have been touring for well over ten years…(2000 + shows) and have released 7 albums with their band, on three different independent labels. Mighty Purple built a small but loyal & devoted underground fan base through consistent touring. Steve owns an all ages music venue in Connecticut called The Space where many national, regional & local acts play. Steve has been booking tours & acting as manager for Mighty Purple and other artists, as well as booking various venues including his own, for over 10 years. If you are interested in learning more about Steve and Jon, or hearing some of their earlier work contact Mighty Purple steve@mightypurple.com two zero three - two eight eight six four zero zero yes that is our phone
