Kim Trenerry and Jason Mogi met in Atlanta in the mid-1990s, where Kim performed in musical theatre and Jason played drums in local blues, folk, and jam bands. They connected while performing in the same group and soon spent their downtime singing Neil Young songs together. Drawn to the blend of their voices and ready for a change, they headed to Port Angeles, Washington, and formed the acoustic duo Tongue and Groove. Their warm harmonies quickly won over local audiences. The duo grew into a full band, released three CDs, and became an Olympic Peninsula favorite, playing everything from late-night, Grateful Dead-inspired jams to Seattle’s Northwest Folklife Festival.
