"Tapestry", the explosive debut release from the L.A.-based band MOJO is sure to excite fans of intense, melodic instrumental rock fusion! This trailblazing power trio features Kofi Baker (son of drumming legend, Ginger Baker), guitarist Brett Garsed (Nelson, John Farnham and Garsed & Helmerich) and bassist Ricc Fierabracci (Frank Gambale, Steve Smith, Andy Summers and Yanni). Tapestry combines well crafted original songs with spirited improvisation and interplay captured in a "live in the studio" context.
Kofi Baker establishes a solid presence throughout the record with his use of polyrhythmic textures and incredible technique. Baker anchors the rhythm section while making strong individual percussive statements in each tune. He is a drumming force to be reckoned with and continues the journey to creativity in the spirit of his father's work with Cream. The phenomenal Brett Garsed shines on every track. His fluid style is distinct and recognizable. Comfortable and assured, Garsed knows when to lay back and when to assault, demonstrating his maturity and position as a first-rate guitarist. Ricc Fierabracci's compelling bass playing stands out in this musical showcase built to display his unique approach and melodic technique. He ties it all together while making the bass sing.
All three musicians combine to create a rich musical landscape while redefining the word "virtuoso." Prepare to be fully engaged and captivated.

    This is about three consummate musicians playing as tight as you like! I have been a longtime fan of Ric Fierabracci and there is a superb example of his almost classical guitar approach to his bass on Tally Ho! A very distinctive player. Kofi Baker is a chip off the old block and coupled with the massive chops of guitarist Garsed, this rocks! Highly Recommended!

  • Hard core funk turned rabid fusion!!

    What a tremendous trio!There are three great musicians here who were made for each other.The guitar can send you through the ceilng and back down through the floor!How'bout rhythm guitar and lead bass? I like that and so does my subwoofer. I belive Kofi's drumming is a testament to his fathers mentoring...HARD!!accurate and ever present.Aint'fusion grand! Try it you'll like it.
