Where the Name of Our Band Comes From
| We derived the name of our band from The Lucky Mojo Curio Co. It expresses a tongue in cheek view of life in the fast lane where everyone is constantly searching for more and more without knowing just what it is that they are looking for. Fast Luck is a popular hoodoo formula for anointing oil, soap, sachet powders, bath crystals, and floor wash. There are several formulas for Fast Luck, but the best and most popular version is New Orleans Style Red Fast Luck. This particular Fast Luck formula was given by Zora Neale Hurston in her 1935 book "Mules and Men," detailing New Orleans and Florida hoodoo practices of the 1930's. The major ingredients in Red Fast Luck are Cinnamon, Vanilla, and Wintergreen. These herbal essences symbolize its use in both money spells and love spells, making Fast Luck an all-purpose formula, intense but of short duration. The woman who is receiving the blessings of this formula is holding her skirt up to catch a mixed rain of dollar bills, coins, and hearts.
