About Me

Mooie Meubow is not a band name or a stage name but more like a nickname. For Joe Tepperman. Yes, some people actually call me this. They are among the talented and generous ones who play over my sung word sounds.
I have a song stuck in my throat. Please, friends... help me get it out!
Speech Science is my trade and I have always loved the SOUNDS of words. For me speech and music aren't really such different things.
I also play with these guys all of the time:
Killsonic
Cat Hair Ensemble

...and with these guys some of the time:
Bodies of Water
Learning Music
