Maybe that's why Sweet Moses rocks so hard. I'm talking about a classic power trio from Lappeenranta, Finland with a voice of their own. 60s psychedelia blues, early hard rock, vintage soul and some pure pop hooks sounds like a good combination. And hey - it is a good combination. It's just some familiar noises and some not-so-familiar noises blended together to make a whole new sound. And that's how it has always been. Take an old thing, spice it up with something else and just groove on it. That's what Sweet Moses does.
The band consists of Sameli (drums), Lauri (bass) and Timo (guitar, vocals) with the latter being the main songwriter and creative motor. Altough the whole band is from Järvenpää, during fall 2004 the three suddenly found themselves located in eastern Finland. In the same exact town of Lappeenranta, actually. Lauri and Timo had some earlier experience in a band together playing endless guitar solos and garage prog rock. Sameli was an old classmate of Lauri's, so it was natural to try jamming together. The jam has been extended to 20+ own songs, several gigs, couple of homebrewed demos and even appearances under false names such as "Kaarlon kaakaoyllätys" (Carl's Cocoa Surprise) and "Löyhät Moraalit" (Sloppy Morals).
And why stop now. There's a spring of more gigs and a new independent release of maybe 4-6 songs on the way. This time there's an actual studio in use for that 'authentic' lo-fi sound. Or medium-fi for all I care. One thing is sure though; it will be jam-packed with highly groovin', head bangin', mojo swingin' rock'n'roll. So rock on losers! Good times ahoy!
