OKC House Concert -- Hannah Juanita and Mose Wilson

An Oklahoma Return!  Hannah Juanita and Mose Wilson
           The last time Hannah Juanita and Mose Wilson played in Oklahoma City, it was Summer 2023 and their second stop on a six-week tour.  With their dog Loretta in tow, they performed an energetic house concert on a Tuesday night to the delight of their fans and country music lovers.  Hannah belted (no microphone) twangy tunes from her debut record Hardliner (2021), Mose plugged in his Telecaster and picked his tail off, and the two lifted a packed living room into a frenzy with their lovely duets, insightful songwriting, fun banter, and outstanding musicianship. 
            Good news!  Hannah and Mose are back, again on a Tuesday night, February 11, for a house concert where they plan on sharing new music.  Hannah released her second record, Tennessee Songbird, last summer, and Mose is slated to release his new record in May – country music “but there’s a lot of styles going on,” Mose says.  “There’s a lot of Cuban influence.  Lot of New Orleans jazz and soul influence.” 
            Hannah agrees.  “They’re country songs, but he’s added some different flavors.” 
            “We have a lot of new material,” Mose says.  “We’ll be trying out a lot of new tunes.”
           Hannah is excited to share songs from Tennessee Songbird, a record that was recorded over two days at Nashville’s The Bomb Shelter studio. 
           “I’m really happy with the songs,” she says.  And, the recording process – an experience she describes as flowing naturally and buoying her creatively and energetically. 
           The two artists have music in their blood.  “My mom says I was singing before I could talk,” Hannah says.  “I’ve always been naturally inclined to sing.”  Likewise with Mose and a guitar.  At the age of two, he received a toy violin as Christmas present, which he returned to his grandmother and asked for a guitar.  He’s been playing since age six and loving all the music he can soak up, from seeing Joe Perry in concert with Aerosmith as a youngster, to learning blues from his guitar teacher John Cook in Tullahoma, Tennessee, to digging on Thelonius Monk today. 
             “He’s been my go-to,” Mose says.        
           Toward the end of January, Hannah and Mose leave their Nashville homebase and head west to play shows in Missouri, Colorado, Wyoming, Nevada, and California before one final stop in Oklahoma City as they close the circle and return to Music City. 
            “I think it will be a really nice way to end the tour,” Hannah says. 
          Hannah Juanita and Mose Wilson play a house concert in Oklahoma City on Tuesday, February 11.  Happy hour is at 7:00 p.m., and music starts at 8:00 p.m.  Donations of $15 per person are suggested for the artists.  For more information and a reservation, please contact [email protected] or 205-616-5009.
