***Winner of the 2003 & 2004 Cincinnati Entertainment Award for "BEST WORLD MUSIC"***
***Voted "BEST WORLD BEAT", Best of Cincinnati 2004***

"It is because of surprises such as Mohenjo Daro that we have the reputation of excellence that we have."
-Dan Behrman, Program Manager, Montreal Jazz Festival

"The members of Mohenjo Daro undoubtedly take their music very seriously and have meticulously nailed down the complex time changes and odd passages of Middle Eastern music, to bring a little of India to everybody."
-Billy Donald, Drummer Interviews

"You could take Mohenjo Daro's music as exotic wallpaper music, but that would be missing the point. These guys make it look easy - the same way that nature makes a perfectly shaped ripple in a pond look easy. It's elegance in motion."
-Arie Vandenberg, ArtSpike Magazine

"Daro worked the slow drum beats into a frenzied hail, looming over the crowd in an unanticipated rush, and then ebbed back into the flowing rhythm, disappearing just as suddenly as it appeared."
-Jana Marx, Et Cetera


Mohenjo Daro delivers a powerful presentation of original, yet traditional Indian and Middle Eastern inspired music. The group's inherently western methods blend with elements ranging from Indian raga and devotional music to Arabic trance and belly dance music.

Over the past decade Mohenjo Daro has developed a unique repertoire that realistically combines their Western influences with their shared knowledge of Indian and Arabic music.
In the fall of 2000 the band signed with French-Canadian label, Tandem Records and in 2002 made a surprise appearance at the Montreal Jazz Festival.

Mohenjo Daro is:
Jim Feist - tabla
Johnny Ruzsa - flute
Zach Mechlem - guitar, egyptian tabla, banjo-mandolin
