About b. Mossman Brad Mossman has been writing and recording original music professionally for over 25 years. A graduate of Oberlin College in Oberlin, Ohio, Brad has composed, sung and performed (bass, guitar, ukulele, keyboards, percussion and didgeridoo!!!) for original bands, animation, film and games. His catchy, upbeat, melody-stuck-in-the-head, foot-tapping songwriting style has added fun and excitement to a wide variety of cinematic, television and online projects. With Cartoon Network, Wildbrain, MondoMedia and Spazzco, the first animated projects Brad worked on were online shorts, for which he provided the theme songs and scores for over 15 different series. He also did voice talent work for some of the characters in these shorts. Continuing work with Cartoon Network for a number of years, Brad has composed opening theme music and scores for over 30 online, 2D games as well as providing the scores for some of their television self-promotional spots. The opportunity to compose for TV animation arrived when Brad was invited to compose songs for the Disney Channel hit "Higglytown Heroes". Brad contributed over 40 original songs to the series' 3 seasons. Along with the playful music he pens and performs, his witty and rhyming lyrics, sung by the kid's voice talent, joyously drive the images during the episode's song sequence. Currently, Brad has paired with creative director Bob Boyle on the Nick Jr. hit, Emmy winning series, "Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!" interpreting Bob's lyrics to craft pleasingly wild and energetic pop/rock songs. The result has been a wonderful collection of lively animated "music videos" at the end of each episode all performed and sung by Brad! He also sings the infectious "Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!" opening theme song which he and Bob wrote together. To date, they have composed over 60 songs together. Brad has composed for and created (directed & co-directed) accompanying animations for 12 songs for 6 seasons of Sesame Street (domestic, international and Sesame Street English)! For Wine Studios in Japan, and Grape Seed / Meysen English Solution, Brad composed a number of songs that are paired with exciting, mixed, live action and animated sequences which teach English as a second language for use by schools and families internationally. Brad's appreciation for the pop/rock band ensemble fused with electronic, synthesized bleeps, blorps and thumps enables him to put forth songs and sounds that kids of all ages will be delighted to jump around to while they enjoy watching their favorite animated characters do the same!
