MOSS is an Adelaide band performing original heartland rock music.
MOSS band members grew up in an era where songs were very much media commentary. The stage was the podium, the lyrics the speeches, as this was the only social platform for political and social voice. Young outspoken people in the 60’s and 70’s were considered troublemakers, anti-establishment and suppressed. Songs with a social message and story continue to resonate with MOSS and we are about to launch their first CD titled: “Face the Music”. Mark Simpkin, Clive Pollard and Suzie Craig are the song-writing arm of MOSS.
“Moss writes and performs songs that have a little more to them than the steady diet of regurgitated emotional claptrap……” Ref: John Schumann; Composer, Performer & Writer
“……. Modern music as art with a message has a place in our nation and Moss may be at the forefront of this movement” Ref: Peter Withy; Marketing consultant and co-founder of KWP!
