The Mojos are a British rock group from England, formed in 1962 as the Nomads. The original duo consisted of bassist Keith Karlson and Jon "Bob" Conrad and in September 1962, lead singer and pianist Stu James joined, followed by rhythm guitarist Adrian Lord. The band changed their name to the Mojos in August 1963 after adding pianist Terry O'Toole on George Harrison's suggestion. Their debut single "They Say" achieved some popularity and was featured in the 1964 film The Comedy Man. In October 1963, Lord left and was replaced by Nicky Crouch. This lineup recorded their three charting singles: "Everything's Al' Right" , "Why Not Tonight", and "Seven Daffodils" which reached number 9, 25 and 30, respectively. They also released an EP, Everything's Al' Right, in 1964. In October that year, Karlson, Conrad, and O'Toole left, and James and Crouch were joined by drummer Aynsley Dunbar and bassist Lewis Collins. This lineup recorded singles "Comin' On to Cry" and "Wait A Minute" before disbanding in September 1966. After various line-up changes and a stint playing in the Ivory Coast, Stu James reformed the Mojos in late 1967 with local musicians Eddie Harnett on lead guitar, Duncan Campbell on bass, and Tony House on drums, recording "Until My Baby Comes Home" for Liberty Records. The Mojos were reformed as a touring band in the 1970s by the Hal Carter Organisation. Lead singer Stu James died on May 10, 2023, at the age of 77.
