Modern Baseball (or Mobo, for short) is an emo band formed by friends Brendan Lukens (they/them) and Jake Ewald in the small town of Brunswick, Maryland. Brendan and Jake both went to the same high school, yet they were in completely different circles. Brendan played sports and hung out with the jocks, always wearing a red hoodie. Jake was part of the more "popular group", made up of the more preppy kids, which he was neither.
