"By the time he was through, I had no idea if Corn Mo was a comic hack, a real retard or a true genius. And I'm still not sure, which gives even more credence to that genius theory." - NY Press
Hailing from Texas, he's learned how to bring the thunder and make you a glass of quiet storm. His songs are done with a sincere passion that have become wonderful anthems of ballyhoo'd triumph.
"Corn Mo uses this quirky soundscape to compose mini-anthems, heroic passages and chaotic polkas. If his spiritual father is Freddie Mercury, then his spiritual uncle is Tiny Tim." - Dallas Observer
"Corn Mo's best Magic trick, however, may be his honesty, which is, in this order: jarring, poignant and very funny."

Brilliant

I listened to this 3 times in a row. Robert Holiday made me cry the first and third time. I enjoyed this CD very much.

Yay!

After seeing Corn Mo open for Ben Folds, the music gods shined the spotlight of musical genius on the CD you are now contemplating. In plain terms, The Magic is You is a marvelously delicious musical goodie. Lollipop, Robert Holiday, Bananas, and I'll Be Your Platypus are upbeat, infectiously fun songs like frolicking with unicorns (but in a good way, not like "I want to punch this unicorn in the face" way). More serious but no less wonderful, songs like I Wish You Were My Home are exquisite. Buy this CD! Come on, you know you want to.

Corn Mo is magic!
author: Jason
I saw Corn Mo a couple of years ago in Austin opening for They Might Be Giants, and I instantly fell in love with his music. It wasn't necessarily that the songs were the best I'd ever heard, but a big part of it was that he was so passionate and thankful that he was doing what he loved. I don't know if it was an act or not, but his songs are like the sincere rock ballads you would expect your burnout friends in high school to write during shop class, songs about picture day and taking your girl to some messed up museum of famous wooden people. I've been playing "The Magic is You" on repeat in my car for the last week and belting out "Busey Boy" along with Corn Mo. I don't have a lot of absolute favorite artists, but Corn Mo is now one of them. Rock on, Corn Mo!
