If Mozez’ butter-smooth vocals sound heaven sent it’s with good reason. The singer songwriter spent the first half of his life singing exclusively in churches. Now poised to release his debut solo album his music has taken him from the West Indies to West London from the church to the charts and the hearts of thousands thanks to his celebrated collaborations with Zero 7.
Born Osmond Wright . Mozez looked towards the American soul greats for inspiration - Marvin Gaye Otis Redding and Frank Sinatra were his idols.
When he was in his late teens He was invited to England for a short tour of churches. Despite his reservations with the English weather Mozez decided to stay studying theology in Hammersmith .
His first break came In 1994 Mozez performed at the wedding of Sun journalist who was looking to sign a musical act. Recognising Mozez’ potential he rushed him into the recording studio with female vocalist Beverley Thomas. As the duo Spirits they reached the Top 20 with the single Don’t Bring Me Down and Mozez found himself in a whole new world.
Despite success with the follow-up Spirit Inside Mozez found that riches did not necessarily follow success. He was later introduced to Henry Binns and Sam Hardaker the production whiz kids who would later find fame as Zero 7. They gelled with Mozez instantly and when they embarked on the first Zero 7 album Simple Things, Mozez co-wrote and sang the title track (Simple Things), and This World.
Another Zero 7 album When It Falls, followed, and all the while Mozez worked away in his home studio in Maida Vale. With input from friends including (Guy Sigsworth),Ben Chapman Nightmares On Wax and of course, Zero 7, he created his solo album writing and recording when the inspiration struck. Five years later it’s finally finished.
“The album is my definitive statement,” he says. “It’s a collection of ideas from my travels my feelings, my passions, my insecurities, my love, my family, the whole thing. It’s exactly what I see myself as. |
