Bio
The women of Moodafaruka are Farukinas the men are Fadooms. Moodafaruka means mood of the dance. Mary Ann Willis world renowned teaching violinist Arlandus Chimney bass/vocals and Rom Ryan are the original members of the group. Adam Carman was a student of the original percussionist Terrence Karn and has done an admirable job of filling his slot. Alesha Herrera is perhaps the most talented of them being a singer dancer and flute player with training in all three disciplines. Richard Saldivar can play anything (literally), but he's focused on keyboards if he's not having to cover some other instrument. The newest member is Edita Rozenberg on rhythm guitar and vocals.
