About J Mosley:

Born to an African American father and Latina mother, J Mosley first picked up a guitar at the tender age of 11. Inspired by greats like Nat “King” Cole, George Benson, Gary Clark Jr., Wes Montgomery, and Jimi Hendrix. J began the mash-up of these sounds which has always influenced and shaped his personal style/brand. By 17, he was the guitarist for the Rap/Rock group Proper Grounds, a pioneer of that genre in the 90’s that influenced bands like Limp Bizkit and ICP; they were first signed to Madonna’s Maverick Records.

Surprisingly enough, J Mosley stepped away from music temporarily as an adult and sought to establish a career as a first responder in the fire service by being hired on as an Emergency Medical Technician, and an officer for the Los Angeles Police Department where he served for six years. However, it was his passion for music which was being under serviced that prompted him to resign and pursue his musical talents full time.

J Mosley’s versatility lends to him participating on projects of all genres Rock, Pop, R&B, Hip Hop, Jazz and Latin sounds. In 2013 J Mosley was conceived, forming a band the JME All-Stars who started touring and playing jazz festivals in California, Arizona, London, France, England, the Netherlands, Germany, Sweden, and Mexico. JM shared billing with Marcus Miller, Jackie Joyner, Stoney B Blues, Kingfish, Fillmore Slim, Norman Brown, Paul Jackson Jr., and many more legends. What began as a Contemporary Jazz band quickly garnered the sounds of Blues Soul. Among his most recent accomplishments, he has become a notable performer at the NAMM 2015/2016/2017 conventions in Los Angeles and Nashville as a solo artist. The honed skills of this multitalented guitarist, producer and songwriter are displayed on his Ep release "Under the Sun" 2015, and the LP "North of the Moon" 2016, in which acclaimed music producer and musical director for Barry Manilow, Ron Walters Jr. at the helm nurtured and complimented J Mosley's musical voyage.

J has recently completed the followup recording with his Contemporary Blues release "Go From Here". The first release of this installment is "Down In My Soul" a Blues Rock record with the influences of Rage Against The Machine and Muddy Waters. The soon to be released record "Go From Here" which is do to drop on 09/11/2017 is an explosive blend of Blues, Country, and Soul. Imagine Muddy Waters meets GnR. Whoa!!

J Mosley is the embodiment of CONTEMPORARY BLUES!
