Get ready for Danny & the Mooz, a wacky and whimsical family band from Ossining, NY, guaranteed to bring zany fun and musical magic to audiences of all ages!
Led by dad, Danny, and mom, Nina, both graduates of the New England Conservatory of music, this musical act is anything but ordinary. Danny’s vocal talent and goofy jokes set the stage for an unforgettable experience. Nina dazzles with original songs about life’s most important things: Pirates! Noodles! Chickens! Eldest son Saya specializes in fast and furious fiddling while drummer-daughter Dorie Sue keeps the beat. Completing the ensemble is the youngest, Jake, whose budding talent on bass adds a touch of youthful exuberance to the show. All three kids attend the award-winning Mike Risko Music School in Ossining.
Danny & the Mooz defy musical genre, blending Americana, international folk, rock, classical, and a touch of whimsy to create a sound that’s uniquely their own. With each song, they invite the audience to dance, learn, sing along, play games, and become part of the Mutlu family (Mooz for short)!
Whether they’re unveiling a new song or reinventing a classic, Danny & the Mooz delight in exploring the ins-and-outs of this art form, music, that we all love. What’s the difference between a violin and a fiddle? Is a shruti box a musical instrument, or a pet bed made for very small and pampered dogs? Which composer preferred to pen his works while surrounded by his beloved cats?
Join Danny, Nina, Saya, Dorie, and Jake as they lead you on a musical adventure like no other. With their unique blend of talent, humor, and silly hijinks, Danny & the Mooz are here to share the joy and creativity of music in a way that promises to be a whirlwind of fun, laughter, and togetherness.
