About the Mau Maus

Wikked roots reggae . . . five part harmonies . . .heavy bass n' drum . . . backed by 150 man-years of stage experience.

The Mau Mau Chaplains include veteran musicians from the 80's reggae group The Lotions, as well as country/reggae phenomenon "I-Tex", the Killer Bees and Pressure amongst some of their past acts. The Mau Maus sound like our favorite roots reggae artists . . . from Toots' to Pluto Shervington to the Melodians . . . Desmond Dekker and more . . . at times their country roots shine through . . .

The Mau Mau Chaplain's country alter-ego is the Texas band, "Stop the Truck". Lineup includes Moe Monsarrat - lead vocals, bass guitar, Miguel Pankratz on Drums, Steve Carter - rhythm guitar, Ed Ferguson on lead, Matt Jacobs on keys, Mark Wilson and Donnie Silvermann on sax/horns plus Pat McCann on guitar.

They have opened for many of the original reggae stars including Third World, Morgan Heritage, the Skatalites, the Meditations, Yellowman and the Sagittarius Band, the Itals, amongst others. Just close your eyes and listen and you'll be transported to Jamaica on their magical wave of riddems . . .
