If Mozez's 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. 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. His first break came with the duo, Spirits, they reached the Top20 with the single Don't Bring Me Down, and Mozez found himself in a whole new world. A follow-up, Spirit Inside, also charted, but Mozez was unhappy with the project and left to concentrate on his own compositions. It was at this time that Mozez developed his own laid back, heartfelt, and deeply soulful style. Its one that gelled perfectly with that of Zero 7s Henry Binns and Sam Hardaker. Mozez co-wrote and sang the title track This World on Zero 7s debut, Simple Things. The album was a smash hit, capturing the zeitgeist of the post-millennial, post-clubbing era. Another Zero 7 album, When It Falls, followed. Having scored a publishing deal with Universal Publishing, Mozez recruited friends including Alex Morris, Tom Quick, Ben Chapman, Guy Sigsworth, Nightmares On Wax and Zero 7 to assist with his debut solo album. It¨s called So Still, and Mozez is rightly proud of it.
