About “MOJO 2”
Following the massive success of his show “MOJO” – Musicians Of Jewish Origin, singer pianist Jeremy Sassoon proudly launches the sequel, ”MOJO 2”, covering the music of another 40 iconic Jewish songwriters and artists, focusing largely on the vintage era of the 1960’s and ’70s.
The musical fare in MOJO 2 encompasses both A-list artists and the ‘unsung heroes’ and has a more alternative musical edge, featuring jazz and rock legends. Think Stan Getz, Marc Bolan, Marc Knopfler and Mama Cass. He also features some songwriters whose names you might not recognise at first, despite being familiar with all their songs that made such a huge impact in the world of entertainment.
Musical performance aside, Jeremy’s characteristic appeal is down to his fantastic rapport with audiences, his entertaining stories, surprising trivial facts and his penchant for sharing details of his own personal experiences.
His recordings and shows have been lauded across the globe, from The Edinburgh Fringe to BBC Radio 4’s Desert Island Discs, from Europe’s top Jazz Clubs to Viking world cruises
His band for MOJO 2 has expanded from that for the first show, with a stunning quartet featuring the outstanding talents of Jasper Wilkinson (sax and guitar), Flo Moore (bass) and Phil Johnson (drums).
Be prepared to be spellbound for 90 minutes of great music and fascinating storytelling!
