Shows with Herbie Hancock, Wassabi Collective, Novillero, the Hummers, Andrew Spence and Vancouver's hippest underground venue the Doll House are all included in the tour.

Moses new record Second Ring, produced by Jamie Shields (the New Deal), was released on Nov 7, 2007 to critical acclaim here in Canada and the UK. Make sure to check the record that "...shows that while the godfather of the genre may be gone, his legacy is alive and well. Fusing funk, disco, acid jazz and old-school hip-hop, Moses Mayes steps up and takes funk in a fun, contemporary direction." - Halifax Chronicle Herald
