Band Bio: MOSADI MUSIC's debut performance in October 2003 was highly anticipated and glowingly received by fans and lovers of live music. MOSADI’s original music is rooted in the soul of Curtis Mayfield, James Brown funk, Zepplin rock, and the socially-compassionate lyricism of nineties hip hop artists The Fugees, and Tribe Called Quest. Mosadi's music reaches audiences of various ages and musical tastes. MOSADI has shared
the stage with such diverse talents as Meshell Ndegeocello, Angelique Kidjo, Nick Whitley (The Cherry Valence), Yahzarah (solo soulstress and former Erykah Badu

recording and touring with other bands. MOSADI’s diverse sound fuses with many different genres of music from funk, hip hop
to rock, which is why MOSADI boasts a wide arrangement of influences and has opened and headlined for Indy Rock bands, World Music artists, Jazz, Soul and Hip hop artists alike.
