Fusion Todd Mosby writes:

"Georgia's World" is jazz fusion guitarist Todd Mosby's newest original song from his upcoming album, 'Land of Enchantment.' It's a Bossa Nova-based jazz composition that expresses the image of the beautiful landscape of Abiqui, New Mexico.

The picturesque “Georgia’s World” is a tribute to Georgia O’ Keefe’s life and times in New Mexico. The track boasts satiny Wes Montgomery octave licks, a slinky bossa-nova groove, and sultry female melody vocals. With ethereal vocal reference to her home in Abiqui, many of Georgia’s landmark paintings were created within her immediate surroundings, serving as a constant source of inspiration.

Todd is an acclaimed Indian and jazz guitarist influenced by St. Louis’s vibrantly varied cultural blend of Indian, African-American, and Americana traditions. He is one of the few musicians in America who has mastered western composition, jazz improvisation, and Indian raga music forms and incorporates them freely as a part of his musical language.

Todd’s compositions feature strong melodies, sometimes sung by female vocalists recalling the aesthetic of Brazilian musician Sérgio Mendes; virtuosic but lyrical instrumental prowess; deep-pocket grooves informed by a variety of jazz, world, and rock-based traditions; and a deep sense of spiritual intent. To date, Todd has released 6 albums and one single. Along the way, he has earned raves from Windham Hill Records founder Will Ackerman; ZZAJ’s Dick Metcalf; India’s Music Ambassador Ustadt Imrat Khan; 17-time Grammy Nominee and jazz guitar legend Mike Stern; and Berklee College of Music President, 7-time Grammy Award Winner, and jazz legend, Gary Burton.
