What is Stolen Ogre?
Stolen Ogre is the result of a collaboration and friendship between Brendan Hill and keyboardist Michael McMorrow. The two met on the H.O.R.D.E. tour in 1996 and quickly formed a bond once Brendan moved to Seattle the following year. Brendan plays and records with Stolen Ogre as time permits, but the band now has a permanent drummer, Matthew Burgess, and tours separately from Blues Traveler as well. The band name comes from the doll, affectionately named “Ogre”, that used to be on Brendan’s drum kit until it was stolen in mid-1995.
