Mo Lowda & The Humble

Starting in the Philadelphia suburbs of Bucks County, PA, Philadelphia Alternative Rock band, Mo Lowda and The Humble became official once making their way to Temple University. Known for their dynamic musicianship, progressive songwriting, and energetic live performances, the band gained a strong following through Temple University’s house party and campus bar scene. After a few years of playing throughout the city with only a demo and EP under their belt, Mo Lowda and The Humble signed to Temple’s Bell Tower Records, releasing their first full length album, Curse The Weather, in the Fall of 2013. The album features Jordan Caiola’s soulful vocals and power songwriting, accentuated by a technical and dynamic rhythm section, made up of Shane Woods on drums, and Nate Matulis on bass. After the release of Curse the Weather, the trio found themselves becoming popular throughout the Philadelphia music scene, playing notable shows at top venues such as Underground Arts, Milkboy, and North Star Bar. With an abundance of new songs already in the works, Mo Lowda and The Humble's future plans include music videos, recording and releasing new material, and continuing to perform both locally and nationally.

Mo Lowda & the Humble’s first full-length effort, "Curse The Weather" is an album that any music fan can enjoy, simply because it has a bit of everything. Its dynamic peaks and valleys range from loud overdriven walls of sound to soft, delicately airy and melodic moments accentuated with reverbs and delays inducing pure relaxation. At the same time, an intricately funky rhythm section groove, serving as a canvas for wordy and playful vocal melodies, can quickly evolve into a head-nodding half-time hook. Caiola’s unique approach to songwriting is taken to the next level by Matulis’ technical bass lines and Woods’ intense drumming. While many of the tunes seem to start in a standard pop structure, there’s a great chance that in only a few minutes a full-blown outro jam will have taken a song to the ultimate crescendo of the final few measures. Although not technically a concept record, "Curse the Weather" exhibits a strong sense of continuity throughout. Lyrically, a majority of the songs contain thematic references to natural elements. Musically however, the album is a shape shifter, filled with rhythmic and melodic trap doors and wormholes.
