Mwiza has been featured in the pages of the Tampa Bay newspaper as well as Creative Loafing; opened up for global acts such as PJ Morton and The Kingston Trio; performed for the Gasparilla Music Festival and is an active full time musician.
For those looking for an intimate setting, a solo (singing and guitar) would be your preferred booking while a duo would appeal to those that would like more upbeat, yet still intimate, music. If you would like to have an event with a full sound and people excited/ dancing, the trio or four- piece band would fit your needs.
Mwiza has originals & cover music spanning multiple genres so there are songs for almost anyone from all walks of life.
