Musician/Pianist from Bali, Indonesia who enjoys playing hammond and singing too. Music is what I am passionate about, besides music I also have interests in fine art, culinary, and design. I love Jazz, Funk, Hip Hop, Rnb, Soul as well as Latin music. Graduated Summa Cum Laude from Berklee College of Music, Boston with dual majors in Jazz Composition and Performance.

I can clearly remember sitting on the piano as a 6 years old kid and not enjoying every single minute of it. My father will not hesitate to keep pushing and reminds me to practice my piano even though I came from a non-musical family. As time goes by, playing piano has become a habit, a routine for me and up to the point where I’m older and can understand things better; I discover jazz and I realize that I’m able to express myself through music like nothing else possibly can do. Being in this place I feel like nothing is impossible. And by saying that I really mean that it is exactly why I’m standing here right now.
 
Regardless the importance of following your own passion and love for whatever it is, there are a lot of things that caused me to fall in love with music more than it was before. Jazz from my point of view is a lot like life. Many things in jazz can always be applied to my everyday life, not just individually but also socially. Jazz has a deeper meaning rather than just simply a style of music. It seems like it’s just another world where anyone can go to and all kinds of people come together. Meeting new people and playing in a same band is like learning to adapt to the community and environment, giving space while playing music is like giving respect to your own creativity and respects others too. I also think that the most important thing is the ability to connect with others and I’m quite sure that music is a really good ‘tool’ for that.
 
I will continue to grow being a ‘never-stop-learning’ musician and I’m looking forward to be able to create music that is truthful and meaningful in the future. I would also love to share my experience, bring joy and lifts people up through my music.

Your lovely Story Telling Pop band | heir debut album My Diary contains 13 songs which were written sequentially based on their story telling concept.

The concept was illustrated by Mocca through a girl’s point of view who frequently wrote her daily experiences into a diary.

The album started with a song: ‘Once upon a time’ as an intro, and followed by her first encounter with her secret admirer (song: secret admirer), then after a long hesitation (twist me around, what if) she decided to get steady with the boy (me & my boyfriend). Thus, they caught up in a fight (telephone), got broke up (when the moonlight shine), and in the end they understood that they weren’t meant for each other (Rain will fall, Life keeps on turning).

Every event were signified by different beat according to the girl’s mood. There are waltz, bossanova, rock n roll even 70’s disco beat.
All songs are written in English, therefore most part of the world could understand the lyrics and it’ll alleviate mocca’s way to go international.
In their live performance mocca is also supported by 2 (two) additional players (keyboards and trumpet).
