We had a great conversation with Jason Moses, founder and member of Shokazoba, a collective music ensamble, focused on channeling the energy of Afro Beat, and expand it into what now they call New World Funk music.

We reviewed the story, origins and evolution of the band and the way creating music also builds a strong community. Shokazoba will have a showcase of their new music at Holyoke Media, on December 19, 2025, at 7:00pm. More information about the showcase and the band, you can visit Shokazoba.com
