	Lazy-I Interview: Mayday (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		In addition to including core Lullaby members A.J. and Mike Mogis, Mayday also follows in Lullaby's diverse instrumental footsteps, sporting guitars, vibes, strings and banjo, along with a cast of guest vocalists.
		But at the center of it all is Stevens and his unique style of songwriting that bends the limits of acoustic sound, taking traditional melodies and forcing them into experimental settings that are at once familiar and disquietingly dissonant, soothing and uncomfortable.
		Stevens said while Mike Mogis is integral to the band's sound, his contribution comes with a price.

	Bright Eyes / M. Ward / Jim James concert review, The Vic , Chicago, IL Feb. 21, 2004
		Conor Oberst & Mike Mogis (Bright Eyes), M. Ward and Jim James (My Morning Jacket) all commanded the Vic's stage with their quiet intensity.
		Mike Mogis, caressed the pedal steel, as M. Ward bowed down to engage the audience and join in on the harmonies.
		Mogis added his cooingly "country riffs," which gave the song more body with its distinct warblings.

		Then Mike Mogis came to California to visit me and we recorded a couple more songs.
		HM: I've heard that Mike is very good at inspiring creativity, and pushing the music to its fuller potentials.
		But they let me do whatever I want… I made this record with Mike last year, but when I started working with him he'd only sold 100,000 records with Bright Eyes, which is a ton of records in the indie world, but not a lot in the major label world.

	Untitled Document
		Produced by Mike Mogis (Bright Eyes, The Faint), his previous project involvement comes through on this release, with at least a few tracks sounding reminiscent of Bright Eyes and The Faint, as well as Conor Oberst's (Bright Eyes) side project, Desaparecidos.
		For Magic, the Charlotte, NC quartet traveled to Lincoln, Nebraska to record with Mike Mogis (Bright Eyes, Cursive) and the sonic difference is palpable.
		Mogis wisely chose not to mess with The Talk’s breathlessly propulsive pop/punk approach (these 12 tracks clock in at less than 26 minutes).

	Bar/None Records: Lullaby for the Working Class I Never Even Asked For Light
		The group,formed in the winter of 1994, started as a duet of Mike Mogis, playing guitar, banjo, mandolin, and several other auxiliary instruments; and Ted Stevens, who sings and plays guitar.
		Their songs were written and recorded without any public appearances until April of 1996, and during this year and a half of writing and recording.
		But when they stepped out of their sports fishing camper to hit the stage at CBGB's they were transformed into a debonair bunch of young men in suits and ties.

	Campus Circle
		Born the youngest of three sons in Omaha to a middle-class family, he was hanging out with an older crowd of aspiring musicians at the University of Nebraska campus in nearby Lincoln before he was even in high school.
		Mogis and Oberst have been joined at the hip musically ever since, surrounded by a constantly rotating cast of musicians drawn from their large pool of friends in Lincoln.
		Mogis sounds like a proud older brother when he traces the growth of his young accomplice over the last decade.

	singing a lullaby - January 28, 1999 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Mike Mogis of Lullaby for the Working Class hesitated when asked what instruments he plays.
		The band, whose name conjures up images of a sleepy proletariat, snug in their blue-collar beds, embodies an ideal of the way a band should be; the way music should be.
		Saddle Creek started as a project by Mogis and Robb Nansel for an entrepreneurship class they were taking.

	Metroactive Music \| Bright Eyes
		Mogis says that he and Oberst thought about recording one of the songs on both albums, in two different arrangements.
		Oberst, Mogis and the Bright Eyes team have kept themselves busy promoting the two new albums, approaching them as almost totally separate concerns.
		Mogis says he and Oberst were particularly anxious to see how Digital Ash was received and were braced for backlash, though they've never regretted taking the creative route.

	A Concert Review of The Phantom Tollbooth
		But tonight's show was in Witherspoon Hall, down in the bowels of Omaha's Joslyn Art Museum - a lovely theatre that stood in stark contrast to the cold, poor acoustics-ridden dives one would normally attend to see any of the 3 artists (well, 4 really, but more on that later) that graced the stage.
		Stripped of much of the orchestral bombast that filled his most recent recordings, there really wasn't anything for Oberst to hide behind, and the nakedness of it all lent additional weight and depth to his shivering performance.
		In some ways, Mogis was the true hero of the night's collaborations, fleshing out the performances of all 3 headliners while never claiming any of the spotlight.

		, formed in the winter of 1994 in Lincoln, Nebraska, originally as a duo, with Mike Mogis, master of the stringed instrument and Ted Stevens, singer, songwriter and acoustic guitar.
		Shortly thereafter A.J. Mogis (a sibling) and Shane Aspegren were added on upright bass and drums and glockenspiel respectively.
		Mike and Ted are also handy around the kitchen- they are currently working on a recipe and a tour to accompany Blanket Warm, which itself is a blend of Let It Bleed period Stones, a dash of Gram Parsons, a whisper of Tindersticks, a slice of Lambchop, but with a flavor all its own.

	One Little Indian • Johnathan Rice
		Mike and I discussed it at length and decided that we had to make a record that explored every musical urge that I had ever felt.
		Luckily, Mike with his ability to play about a hundred instruments and a small group of some of my favorite musicians were able to match every sound I had in my head without ever using words like note, chord, or key.
		Mike and those kids from Nebraska (and some from LA, NYC, and Chicago) saved my songs and helped me make the record I wanted and needed to make.

		Recording Studios in Lincoln, NE because I wanted to work with my friend, producer/engineer, Mike Mogis.
		During a week and a half in May of 2002, the tracks were fully dissected.
		Mike, being a talented multi-instrumentalist, learned some of the programmed parts using an array of instruments (hammer dulcimer, glockenspiel, vibraphone, and electric guitar) and recorded these parts himself.

	Bright Eyes in its earnest roots-rock mode
		Partway through Bright Eyes' set at Town Hall on Tuesday night, the band's leader and songwriter, Conor Oberst, turned to confer quietly with Mike Mogis, its producer, pedal-steel guitarist and mandolin player.
		It was Oberst's old-fashioned side, a throwback to the 1960s camouflaging his streak of 21st-century emo self-absorption.
		The songs were kicked along by Jason Boesel on drums (from yet another Omaha band, Rilo Kiley) and topped by up to three light-fingered guitarists along with Mogis' country instruments and, for touches of stateliness, a trumpeter.

	Lullaby for the Working Class - Song: Reviews, Track Listing, Audio Clips, and more \|\|\| Music.com
		The final offering from Ted Stevens [+]' Lullaby for the Working Class [+] is their most pensive and orchestral disc, but also their most beautiful.
		The revolving cast that also includes brothers Mike and A.J. Mogis as well as violinist Tiffany Kowalski [+] would reappear in a similar fashion a few years later on Stevens' Mayday project, but this is more of a full-band effort, and the cohesive work of the artists involved truly pays off.
		From the gorgeously lilting opener, "Expand, Contract," to other lengthy but enlightening numbers like "Seizure," Lullaby for the Working Class [+] are the predecessors to the slowcore movement and orchestral pop acts that followed a few years later, and this is their epic offering and inspiration.

		Landing in NYC and working with Mike Davis (of MC5) seems to have helped focus their songs to a dirty punk and 70s rock flavor that is a bit of the current fashion.
		It’s nice to see this given Fat Mike’s appearances of various TV shows supporting the Rock Against Bush movement and the move to push the message beyond just songs.
		It will be interesting to see whether Fat Mike and friends can keep Punk Voter going for another four years or even another two years (for the midterm elections).

		He recorded his latest album, Trouble is Real, in Nebraska with Mike Mogis (producer for Bright Eyes, Rilo Kiley, The Faint).
		He manages to juxtapose the old-timey blues of "Put Me in Your Holy War" with the blazing power-chord wall-of-sound of "Salvation Day" and then jump to the music hall swing of "Stay at Home," and the three songs sound like a seamless suite.
		Part of the credit is due to producer Mike Mogis, known for his imaginative work with Bright Eyes and Rilo Kiley (whose Jenny Lewis co-wrote "Behind the Frontlines" with Rice).

	Lullaby For The Working Class "Song"
		Unfettered by trends but unafraid of technology, Lullaby creates music with guitars, banjos, strings and the occasional horn section that, arrangement-wise, harkens back to Stephen Foster, but, in performance, has the impassioned immediacy of a great contemporary emo-core combo.
		Two years later Mike’s older brother A.J. joined them on upright bass and pal Shane Aspergren on drums (and, occasionally, glockenspiel) and Lullaby became a bonafide band that hit the road to support their Bar/None debut Blanket Warm.
		Critics in the U.S. and the U.K. were smitten by their sound and strained to describe exactly what it was.
