Bob Moses
Last year on the 5th of February, Tearing Me Up by Bob Moses was featured here.
I am so pleased that the remix of the song won a Grammy Award.
The original post is reprinted below and I have added the remix by RAC as well.
“Bob Moses is a Canadian electronic duo based in Brooklyn.
Tom Howie and Jimmy Vallance attended high school together in Vancouver. Howie went on to attend Berklee College of Music in Boston, Vallance to producing dance music.
The two accidently reconnected in New York and formed Bob Moses, the name a tribute to Robert Moses, a major New York City urban planner responsible for many of the iconic bridges and expressways in the City, not to mention Shea Stadium.
Days Gone By is their debut including the song Tearing Me Up.”
