  • Bio

    Mezzoforte was formed 1977 in Reykjavik Iceland by 4 teenage friends with a mutual interest in fusion and funk music. In 1983 the world wide hit, Garden Party, from their 4th album made Mezzoforte the first Icelandic band ever to achieve international recognition. 30 years, 11 albums and over a thousand concerts later, the band is still going strong with 3 of 4 original members (sometimes all 4) touring regularly with a 6-10 piece band. A live DVD recorded in 2007 is available in shops or here http://www.mezzoforte.grapewire.net .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..
