Press release

New Single from Alan Moe Monsarrat Smooth Sailing Release Date: FRIDAY, MAY 25, 2018 From Music4Life, the Austin, Texas- based record label. Smooth Sailing was written by Curly Putman and Sonny Throckmorton back in the 1970s. Moe says: “I’ve always loved the song and since Sonny is my dear friend I decided to cover a few of his tunes reggae style.

This track has a definitive ‘80s dancehall rhythm with the beautiful melody floating above it. Sonny loves it and we hope you do too. I bet you could sing a baby to sleep with this one.” Alan Moe Monsarrat was born in 1951 in Phenix City, Alabama. His parents were in the U.S.

Army and he grew up in many different places. He started singing at 13 with a band near Tokyo, Japan. After moving back to the states he joined a band in San Antonio, Texas as a singer and later became the bass player as well. Moe began playing Reggae in Hawaii in 1973 and he co-founded the first reggae band in Texas, The Lotions.

He now performs with Music4Life and The Mau Mau Chaplains in Austin, Texas. On April 20th, during the recent Austin Reggae Festival, the Mau Mau Chaplains received a proclamation from the City of Austin declaring that day as “Mau Mau Chaplains Day” in Austin. They were recognized for doing more than 500 shows at their weekly residency on Wednesday nights at Flamingo Cantina over the last 10 years.
