In his Mofongo project, José Ayala draws upon a wide range of influences and expertise to craft physically compelling, mentally invigorating sonic worlds with conceptual and technical precision.
Ayala is a classically trained guitarist and composer, a native of Puerto Rico, a veteran of Jayuya, one of this country's most outrageous salsa bands, and former student of Boston improv gurus Ran Blake and Joe Maneiri. As Mofongo, he channels these years of study of numerous genres in to his live processed guitar work, creating a focused sound which reveals deep musical accomplishment and sensitivity without ever resorting to pastiche or fusion of the various elements of his musical background.
