1) The tracks that are playable on this Moped page (Chunkabliss, Dos, etc.) are by the Moped from San Fransico. BIO: As one of San Francisco’s staple indie acts, Moped’s organic brand of dance music has kept bodies movin’ since 2003. Multitasker Peter Gavin (sax, bass, keys and sometimes vocals) leads the duo, while drummer Scott Eberhardt keeps the time and brings the room together like a rug! Interspersed between avant-jazz, electro and heady trip-hop originals, Moped lightens the mood with covers such as Hall and Oates’ “Maneater. ” Their use of abstract visuals and quirky cult movies (projected behind them) completes the cinematic quality of their live shows.
2) Moped were a New Zealand band formed in Palmerston North by three brothers, Gareth (guitar & backing vocals), Hayden (bass and lead vocals) and Karl Shearman (drums). They played an infectious brand of groove saturated reggae rock, with lyrics which speak of a clear Christian commitment.
Moped have released two albums and one ep in their career. Their first album Noise From the Knee Drill was released in 2002 and the 2005 release Welcome to the Exodus. 2006 saw the release of their farewell ep and DVD One More March. Noise From the Knee Drill was a more rock based album, and though it was a far less polished album (than later albums) it contained songs like Guilt Trip, and This Means War which were regarded by many fans to be among Mopeds best work.
