3. The Moxie from Houston formed like many other bands: through a facebook courtship, a midnight Taco Cabana outing, and an STD testing session. Their music could be considered “post-funk," if such a thing existed, and their live shows are worthy of their namesake.
Having just completed a national tour this summer (2007) ranging from Texas to New York to Missouri in the Funkwagen, their airport shuttle bus, this band has “moxified” thousands of unsuspecting citizens and turned (most of) them into fans. They've won every battle of the bands they've EVER played (2), one of the guys shook Chad Smith's hand after a Chili Peppers' concert, and at one show Ratatat totally used their guitar stand. This is the band you’ve never heard of that you don’t want to miss.
Houston's exist on the web at http://www.moxieplease.com, http://moxieplease.blogspot.com, and http//www.myspace.com/moxieplease.
4. San Diego version is at http://www.myspace.com/moxierocksusa

6, "Effervescent." "Soulful." "Danceable." When writers try to describe Moxie, they produce bright and passionate adjectives, words that conjure warmth and passion. But the word that seems to stick above all else is "unique." Moxie draws from a wide range of inspiration, collaging the influences of grooves and melodies that span across decades forming together. This crafts a sound that simultaneously evokes the comfort of a classic and the wonder of an entirely new sound. Moxie is made of Rei Kimura's powerful vocals which reminisce of classic soul and blues, Leander Holzapfel's shimmering and dynamic lead guitar voicing colorful chords and bright leads, Daniel Snyder's unbelievably tight grooves which draw jealous looks from metronomes everywhere, and David Cohen's basslines which often blur the line into a lead instrument. Together, their influences blend and swirl, creating a hybrid which truly, unambiguously, sounds of Moxie. Following their debut album, The Fall LP, their second record, Flow of Color was released June 1, 2020.

Moxie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Maybe my girlish face
Gives an illusion of virtuosity
If it were my choice
You're hear my beat
My bass find a seclusion and fill my curiosity
If we were still in 7th grade I'd want to stay on 2nd base
But we're not
You say you want to please me
And then all you do is tease me
Here's a lesson.
Just put it in me
Now
I'll pull my shirt low, i let my hair go wile
I bat my lashes and give my evil smile
Then watch your face glow
Like an embarrassed child
Your eyes do dashes -
Come on let's go the mile
What are you trying to protect?
I already have self-respect
I don't need yours so don't neglect me
Put it in
I ask you why you hesitate you say it's just our 2nd date
I don't care and I can't wait
Just put it in me
Now
So what's your credo?
Do you have a low libido?
Are you gay?
Oblivious?
You don't like me?
You like me too much?
Watching you is like watching an x-rated movie where nobody takes off their
clothes
What are you trying to protect?
I already have self-respect
I don't need yours so don't neglect me
I ask you why you hesitate
You say it's just our 2nd date
I don't care and I can't wait
Put it in me
Now...
The song "Suburbia" by Moxie is a bold, unapologetic exploration of female sexuality, consent, and the double standards that exist in our society when it comes to male and female desires. The first verse suggests that the singer's appearance might give the impression of innocence or purity, but in reality, she is curious and wants to explore her sexuality. She expresses her frustration with her partner, who claims to want to please her but only teases her, refusing to give her what she desires. The singer asserts her agency and asks her partner to "just put it in" without hesitation or excuses.
The second verse is even more explicit, with the singer asking her partner if he has a low libido, if he is gay, or if he simply doesn't like her. She challenges the notion that women should be passive and obedient when it comes to sex, and demands that her desires be respected and fulfilled. The repeated refrain of "put it in me" is a powerful assertion of female desire and agency, challenging the idea that sex is something men take from women rather than something that women actively seek and want.

Maybe my sweet voice
Perhaps my voice sounds charming and lovely
Maybe my girlish face
Perhaps my youthful appearance
Gives an illusion of virtuosity
Creates a false perception of my abilities
If it were my choice
If the decision were mine to make
You're hear my beat
You would hear my music
My bass find a seclusion and fill my curiosity
The low notes on my instrument provide a sense of exploration and wonder
If we were still in 7th grade I'd want to stay on 2nd base
If we were younger, I would be content with staying on second base in baseball
But we're not
However, we are not younger anymore
So put it in
So, perform intercourse
You say you want to please me
You say you desire to satisfy me
And then all you do is tease me
But all you do is provoke or tempt me
Here's a lesson.
Here is an instructive message.
Just put it in me
Engage in sexual intercourse with me
Now
Right now
I'll pull my shirt low, i let my hair go wile
I will lower my shirt and let my hair appear wild
I bat my lashes and give my evil smile
I flutter my eyelashes and give a mischievous grin
Then watch your face glow
Then observe your face light up
Like an embarrassed child
In a manner similar to a ashamed juvenile
Your eyes do dashes
Your eyes move quickly
Come on let's go the mile
Let us engage in sexual acts to the fullest extent
What are you trying to protect?
What are you attempting to guard against?
I already have self-respect
I already have a high regard for myself
I don't need yours so don't neglect me
I do not require your protection or disregard me
I ask you why you hesitate you say it's just our 2nd date
I inquire on why you are delaying and you reply that we have only gone out twice
I don't care and I can't wait
I do not care about waiting, I am eager to proceed
So what's your credo?
So, what is your belief system?
Do you have a low libido?
Do you have a low sex drive?
Are you gay?
Are you homosexual?
Oblivious?
Are you unaware?
You don't like me?
Do you not like me?
You like me too much?
Do you like me excessively?
Watching you is like watching an x-rated movie where nobody takes off their clothes
Observing you is similar to watching a suggestive film where no one disrobes
What are you trying to protect?
What are you trying to guard against?
I already have self-respect
I already have a high regard for myself
I don't need yours so don't neglect me
I do not need your protection or disregard me.
I ask you why you hesitate
I inquire on why you are delaying
You say it's just our 2nd date
You reply that we have only gone out twice
I don't care and I can't wait
I do not care about waiting, I am eager to proceed
Put it in me
Engage in sexual intercourse with me
Now...
Right now...
