Mo' Mojo brings Zydeco music to San Pedro
San Pedro was treated to the hard driving, high energy Zydeco based "Party-Gras" tunes of Mo' Mojo on Saturday, January 24th. Held at the Honorable Louis Sylvestre Sporting Arena, the concert was part of the American Music Abroad program led by the United States of America Embassy. San Pedro was the first stop for the band's Belizean tour, followed by Corozal Town and San Ignacio Town.

Mo' Mojo band is comprised of five members: Jen Maurer - accordion/vox, Leigh Ann Wise - percussion/trumpet/vox, Anthony Papaleo - fiddle/guitar, Darren Thompson - bass and Will Douglas - drums. Their music is a fusion of Zydeco (a kind of dance music originally from southern Louisiana, typically featuring accordion and guitar) and Cajun (an emblematic music of Louisiana, rooted in the ballads of the French-speaking Acadians of Canada) with reggae, rock & roll, funk, R&B, African, and Latin elements. The songs are sung in either English or French and portray the rich culture of the southern states of the USA. At the concert, the crowd enjoyed rich tunes from Mo' Mojo, and some even got up and danced along with the band. Concert goers also enjoyed music from one of the island's favorite band, Rompe Raja, as they opened the event.
