Bob Lemos, or Bobzilla as we like to call him, is one half of the founders of Mukagee. He saw a vision that he hasn't seen in the metal scene as of yet and wanted to show the world what metal was missing. With shredding guitar licks, the will to bring another dimension to heaviness, recording and songwriting prowess, and the wide array of musical influences and knowledge to help catapult him to where he wants to be, Zilla's imagination and technique has helped bring Mukagee to the masses near and far.

Dave Wilson, aka Ill Will, is the other half of the founding brothers of Mukagee. Dave is an unstoppable force when it comes to songwriting, arranging, and recording. He sees and hears things that make Mukagee what it is today. Along with that Dave brings to the table the bone-crushing rhythm, the hold on to your fuckin seats heaviness, and the "I'm gonna kick your ass with my instrument" bass lines that match no other. Dave's influence is a force to be reckoned with.

Tony Oliveri - or Tony O., joined Mukagee some years ago with his desire to rock the masses and bring metal a new face to break. In addition to his steady guitar antics, Tony O. continues to strive for the heaviest of heavy, the "let's go way faster and get crazier with that" attitude, the hunger for making the baddest recording, and recently introducing the demonic seven string monster to Mukagee. With his take no prisoners attitude and heavy grooves he let loose the Tyrannosaurus Rex in the music world.

Mzao Waters is known to his fans as Mo. He's seen as the vocal powerhouse in any song he sings and has even proven himself to some of music's most influential recording and performing artists of today. Aside from singing at the smaller personal shows in your neighborhood or the big time stage in front of thousands of screaming fans, Mo's love for music shows in his keen abilities to write songs that fans can relate to and embrace. His dedication to constantly better himself and develope his gifts definitely project emotions and add movement to his music that consistantly captivate and inspire all listeners. You will surely agree that Mo is unmatched in any genre of music today.

The pounding heartbeat that gives Mukagee life today derives deep from the very heart and soul of Ronny Johnston.

Influenced by many ranges of music from jazz to ska, punk to metal have no doubt once RJ begins playing a pit is going to start.
