Philly Girl Sandra Hurvitz aka Essra Mohawk has had a long and remarkable career. Probably best know for her work on Schoolhouse Rock, she was also the first female member of Frank Zappa’s legendary band, The Mothers of Invention. Oh, and she just missed performing at Woodstock by “that much”.

Tales of the Road Warriors
A music talk podcast that explores the world through conversations with entertainers, musicians … guitarists, bass players, keyboardists, managers, roadies, recording engineers and people who make a living on stage and behind the scenes. Hosted by Hal in Philly (Hal Aaron Cohen).
If you have a tale to tell, we should talk.
If you spend (or have spent) a good part of your life on the road, in hotels, motels, performing in venues of any size, toured with a band, travel the country doing house concerts, play local gigs from tribute bands, cover bands, back up bands, one-man-bands…
Let me know if you have a concert or a new project to promote, I’ll try to schedule the podcast release date to coincide with your event.
Please call (818) 730-3600 and let’s set up a date and time for a Skype, Facebook or Face Time interview. You can also send a message through the form in the sidebar or contact page. This is going to be great. I promise!
