The music of Psychedelic Mooj is an amazing fusion of rock, funk, soul and jazz all in one melting pot of psychedelic blues. Hailing from Chandler, AZ Psychedelic Mooj has been playing together since January 2005. Just in their first year, they’ve recorded a full-length all original album, played numerous live shows and rocked on-stage with Dee Snider at the Hard Rock Sauza Tequila Band Showdown in Phoenix, AZ.
What is a Mooj (pronounced MOO-j)? According to the band members of Psychedelic Mooj, Mooj is something that can represent anything and everything. It’s blues, it’s rock, it’s soul, jazz, country or whatever you want it to be. This diverse musical philosophy known as “Mooj” is the cornerstone of their sound.
Psychedelic Mooj came together from varied musical styles, backgrounds and careers. Their day-jobs range from a federal law enforcement officer, search engine strategist, medical technician and a nuclear engineer. Everyone was brought together for a love of harmonious creativity with no boundaries. This perpetual drive to explore new musical roads can be clearly heard on their new debut, independent CD release.
The debut CD from Psychedelic Mooj is a self-produced effort recorded at the Eastside Mansion Studios in Tempe, AZ. The music presents a wide variety of sounds from all styles (blues, rock, psychedelic, jazz, country and even a little waltz). From the opening track “Who’s Gonna Love Ya”, you’ll be taken on a musical roller coaster that’ll keep you jumpin’ out of your seat, groovin’ to the beat, bangin’ your head, finger snappin’ and ballroom dancin’.
