Saturday, January 24th - MOOSSA plays with Stump Hole Water at Highwater Restaurant at Toad’s Place.
MOOSSA brings its eclectic roots rock mix back to the Richmond area on Sat Jan 24 with a 9pm show at Highwater Restaurant at Toad’s Place. The 6 piece group features strong, song driven rock laced with reggae, funk and blues. A mainstay in the Richmond area over the last 7 years, the band is known for great live performances as well as a catalog of 4 CDs recorded locally at Sound of Music and Minimum Wage Studios. Moossa’s most recent release, “Route 17”, is a “…new A+ album that’s got all the elements to get your smoky jazz club party into a funky dance fix, then turn it back around into a mellow jam infused with some reggae overtones…stylistically breaking the boundaries of what you may hear from your traditional rock album.”
Kicking things off for the evening is Stump Hole Water featuring the dark, folk, down-to-earth acoustic blues of Mr. Clark Lovelady. "Stump Hole Water channels vintage Americana with great instrumentation and spirited vocals. Swapping instruments and vocal duties, the brothers Lovelady and Mr. Andy Malik weave an entertaining blend of lively tunes that evoke props to many styles and genres, but remains refreshingly original and new. The songs never take back seat, as Stump Hole Water sells each one with such enthusiasm and celebration. In an age of labels and carefully prepared descriptions, it’s a pleasure to "not" be able to pigeon-hole this band of young talent, paying homage to musical inspirations of days gone by."
