Brian Mooney (bass, backing vocals)

Brian 

Native New Jerseyan, bassist/composer Brian Mooney in his late teens studied harmony, physiology, and improvisation with Gerald Carboy (bassist for jazz/fusion pioneers Barry Miles and David Sancious & Tone).

On both electric and double bass, Brian’s experience spans jazz, fusion, soul, progressive rock, R&B/funk, Latin, classical, pop, and rock—both live and in the studios. Brian has been on the New Jersey music scene for years and has performed with many artists including Rob Paparozzi, Glenn Alexander (Jan Hammer/Stretch), Gary Oleyar (Loggins and Messina), Anthony Krizan (Lenny Kravitz/Spin Doctors), Bernard Purdie, Ritchie “LaBamba” Rosenberg, and Mark Pender (Conan O’Brien show). Brian also co-leads the phenomenal jazz-fusion group Piktor’s Metamorphosis, which spans tributes of classic jazz/rock fusion to original compositions.
