Phillip John 'Phil' Mogg (born 15 April 1948, in Wood Green North London), is a vocalist for the band, UFO which he formed with longtime friends Pete Way and Andy Parker. They recruited guitarist Mick Bolton but later Mogg had a run in with Bolton which ended up in Bolton being fired. UFO had been touring with such bands as Scorpions. When Mogg and UFO needed a guitarist they got Michael Schenker at the ripe old age of 19 to join UFO. Mogg wrote the majority of the band's lyrics, with the music being written by Way, Schenker, and later, Raymond, but Schenker left to launch his solo career in 1979. In 1997 Mogg and Way put out a solo album called Mogg/Way. With UFO on hiatus, Phil formed the side project $ign of 4. In late 2003, having regained the rights to the UFO name from Schenker, Mogg spoke with Pete Way and Paul Raymond, and ended up having a reunion tour which later brought the band back for good. The band then released several new albums : "Showtime", "The Monkey Puzzle", "You Are Here".

Mogg is the only member of UFO to appear on all of the band's albums.

Phil Mogg is the uncle of Nigel Mogg, bassist with The Quireboys.
