London based duo Mozzy Green comprise of Ben Sommers (guitar, vocals) and Anna Scott (cello, vocals). A powerful off-kilter duo, who combine lyrical brilliance and intrigue with haunting melodies, rhythmically propulsive guitar and raucously melodic cello. The music is built on the foundations of such influences as Tom Waits, Stravinsky, conspiracy theories, folk, and a punk attitude.
Originally formed by Ben Sommers, the band have been through several incarnations, before settling on the current line up. They have played at numerous venues across the south of England, and were recently chosen to open the West-End theater production 'The Rise and Fall of Lenny Smallman' at the Arts Theater, Soho, playing a 30 minute set each night.
