Kentucky Rockers Mojo Thunder Release “Let It Fall” Single
Kentucky’s renegade rock and roll band Mojo Thunder release their sophomore album The Infinite Hope on Friday August 30, 2024. The third single, “Let it Fall” debuts today.
The Infinite Hope album will debut digitally Friday August 16, 2024, ahead of its Friday August 30th physical release date of the CD and vinyl.
Written by vocalist and rhythm guitarist Sean Sullivan, guitarist Bryson Willoughby, and drummer Zac Shoopman, “Let it Fall” is an emotionally rich rocker that truly defines what the band refers to as “Southern Alternative.”
“It is about personal mistakes that lead to losing someone you’re in love with,” says Sullivan about “Let It Fall.” “Seeing as nothing new (perhaps better) can begin until the old has been put to rest.”
Willoughby, who penned the track’s title adds, “We often deny ourselves grace in our lowest moments, and Let it Fall embodies accountability, forgiveness, and the permission to let go so you can move forward.”

Commenting on the song structure Shoopman says, ” It was a true exercise in playing only what’s necessary for me. The way everything weaves together and climaxes into the final chorus feels great.” Of his lyrical contributions he adds, “The idea that we’re all just a bit of evolved cosmic debris is fascinating to me, which is where the line about being dust from a star came from.”
On the album as a whole bassist Andrew Brockman says, “We’ve tapped into something I don’t think we were capable of a few years ago, and it’s been awesome to grow as musicians and people with this group.”
The Infinite Hope explores topics such as activism (“Caroline”), tragedy (“Memphis”), the dark side of the American south (“Holy Ghost’), Love (“Grace,” “Coming Back To You”) and the search for truth (“Greetings from Western Art”). Champions of self-empowerment and authenticity, the band has cultivated a community built around acceptance. There is a sense of belonging in the music, and as the album title suggests, a call for hope.
Produced by Duane Lundy (Ringo Starr, Justin Wells, Sturgill Simpson) at the Lexington Recording Co. Lundy said, “We all shared the desire to do things as a unit, to perform, to mine for as many dynamics and emotion in their performances, but still putting the priority on the songs,” says Lundy about the recording process.
An American rock band established in 2018, Mojo Thunder hit the road and quickly gained attention of live music fans with an electrifying show praised for its high energy, heavy grooves, improvised jams, and a familiar, yet new sound. Early studio efforts include two singles, and an EP titled Loose Lips released June 9, 2019.
Continues Lundy, “The lyrics are thoughtful and meaningful, something that I feel like is often slighted in current rock material, but my main takeaway was the quality of people they are. Their invitation meant a great deal to me, and I feel like I have four new family members.”
In support of the record the band will perform a select run of Kentucky concerts leading up to its release prior to embarking on a month-long European tour that includes stops in Germany, France, Spain and more. Tickets are available from HERE
