It is quite rare for me to write about an act that is unsigned. If I do, then I feel it must be an act that I must share with you. This is Big Mosey.

Conceived in Brooklyn, New York, this pairing of “delirious and victorious” alternative rockers have a vibe which I feel is best matched to Stiltskin, singers of the ’94 Levi’s Jeans commercial with their one hit wonder ‘Inside’. With Big Mosey having influences like Pearl Jam, The Black Keys and Kings Of Leon, we already have an idea of what their musical sound resembles.

This four track release ‘Homeward At Daybreak’ is pure raucous energy. ‘Harold Called This Morning’ has a 40 a day smoker vibe with the gravelly textured vocals with great musical vibrancy with a rumbling yet jovial bass composed by Evan Hammer as well as snappy and choppy guitar chords telling the story of Harold’s disillusions.

‘Rainbows Wild’ is most delightful and is where my Levi’s comparison comes from. The gritty bellowing of Matt Jacobs‘ voice after his subtle masculine whisperings when the chorus is unleashed creates the levitation of your soul. This must be an awesome record to hear live. I can envisage their dedicated followers signing as backing vocalists to this when the muscle is vented.

Their third track ‘The Blues Skies Are Over’ is a blues tinged, grungey serenade and their fourth ‘Rocking Chair’ is further blues based rock. The pace is reduced and the tone is more aggressive but rather than hatred and anger it is more pain and suffering sung with great passion.

‘Homeward At Daybreak’ by Big Mosey is available from their website right HERE with ‘Rainbows’ a free download HERE and ‘Harold’ a free download available HERE.

Get yourself signed, Big Mosey because I want more of the same please.
