Mo Pleasure is a multi-instrumentalist who has played with artists such as Earth Wind & Fire, Ray Charles, Michael Jackson, George Duke, Bette Midler and many others.
I first met Mo a few years ago when I worked for producer and engineer, Jon Moon. It was a project that unfortunately never got released, however, the musicians that were hired for the project were awesome and Mo was one of them.
It was a pleasure talking to Mo again and in this interview, we spoke about:
• What his responsibility as a musical director is and being an MD for Earth Wind And Fire
• Dealing with having tours for Michael Jackson, Christina Aguilera and other two tours cancelled in the same year
• How to memorise a full-set list
• The stress of getting a “brain-freeze” during a show
• The feeling when you are really grooving with your bandmates
• Why and what you need to put in writing as a hired musician to cover yourself from future disagreements
• How Mo has sustained a music career throughout several decades
• The importance of less is more
• Being a mature player at an early age
