Guillaume, the band's drummer and founding member, grew up in the U.S. with legendary jazz pianist Chick Chorea as a personal influence. Though physically far from Haiti, he allowed the color of the music from his Caribbean mother-land to influence his playing and produced with his band members, also including electric bass player, Gene Torres, a sound distinctive and attention-grabbing enough that it has won them a spot opening for Guillaume's influence at the Jazz Up summer music series held in Stamford.

Having entered with no expectations, Mozayik, with two albums under their belt and a third on the way, were giving uncommon validation and joy in being asked to share their music, old and brand new with a most discerning crowd on one of the summer's most important stages.
