The Mowgli’s Biography

The American alternative rock band The Mowgli’s was established in 2009 in the Calabasas area of Los Angeles, by musicians Matthew Di Panni, Dave Appelbaum, Spencer Trent, and Andy Warren. After recruiting additional members, the band released a collection of their first recordings in 2010 via online sites, earning a local following and establishing a growing fan base.

Throughout 2010 an 2011, The Mowgli’s performed hundreds of shows in the Venice Beach area of California, sometimes up to five gigs in a single night, in any venue that would welcome them. At the same time, the musicians were hard at work on a debut LP, which would ultimately be released as Sound the Drum. A Kickstarter campaign helped the group to raise additional funds, and the debut was released in May of 2012.

Sound the Drum spawned the single “San Francisco,” which did very well on local college radio and earned The Mowgli’s the attention of Paradigm and Island-DefJam records. An EP, Love’s Not Dead, was released in late 2012, followed by the full-length album Waiting for the Dawn, which proved to be The Mowgli’s big breakthrough, rising into the top forty on the rock charts in the United States.

Since that time, The Mowgli’s have been a band steadily on the rise; they are definitely one to watch in the coming years. The Mowgli’s latest album, Where’d Your Weekend Go, was released in 2016, and in recent years, the group has played at nearly every high-profile festival in the nation, including Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, Hangout Festival, and Austin City Limits.
