Miles Mosley Rising Up

MILES MOSLEY KNOWS THE IMPORTANCE OF surrounding yourself with good people.

- Jon D’Auria

Growing up in the L.A. music scene, Mosley was schooled by greats such as Ray Brown, John Clayton, and Abraham Laboriel, before branching off as a first-call player for Lauren Hill, Joni Mitchell, Chris Cornell, Kendrick Lamar, Kamashi Washington, and many others. In emerging from sideman to musical director and bandleader, Mosley founded the West Coast Get Down, a powerful collective of musicians who are responsible for seemingly every big album coming out of Southern California nowadays. Add to that list his duo band, BFI, with drummer Tony Austin, and you get the idea of how important musical family is to him.
