A gifted virtuoso guitarist and composer, Moro first played (and wrote his first composition!) when he was six and performed his first of many concerts when he was twelve. For years he traveled the world as a troubadour, using only his guitar performances as currency. This talented former member of the world-famous New Christy Minstrels has played in over 50 countriesin royal palaces, African casbahs, and even on a British warship in trade for his passage across the Indian Ocean. Bedouin champagne smugglers took him across the Arabian Desert in their camel caravan, listening to his music beneath desert stars. While he was in Bangkok giving a command performance for Their Majesties King Bhumibol and Queen Sirikit of Thailand, the U.S. military invited him to play for the troops at their jungle camps. And he became the first entertainer to perform for American forces in the Vietnam conflict. He was also the first entertainer to appear at Paul Newman”s famous 1960s exclusive Hollywood discotheque, THE FACTORY, where he played nightly. He followed that with an engagement at Howard Hughes” CABARET ROOM in Las Vegas where Mr. Hughes personally came to hear him. An Italian duchess who found him performing with a street-dancing flamenco troupe of gypsies in 1961 assisted him in obtaining a visa for Algeria where he then touredduring the violent Seven Years” Warand S.A.O. terrorists captured and held him. He played for them, literally for his life, whereupon they gave him money and let him go.During his troubadour travels, he wrote many articles that were published in the KANSAS CITY STAR-TIMES, the NEW YORK TIMES” SANTA ROSA PRESS DEMOCRAT, and in the CHRISTIAN SCIENCE MONITOR. He became the subject of an international media blitz, during the 1960″s (when he was known as Buddy Bohn), and he was featured in TIME magazine.He”s won critical acclaim around the globe, not only for his mastery of the guitar but for his compositions as well, having won 30 consecutive ASCAP Awards. His audiences have included H.R.H. Elizabeth II of England, H.R.H. King Frederick IX of Denmark, Pablo Picasso, Greer Garson, James Cagney, Rita Hayworth, Patty Duke, Cass Elliott and Lee Marvin. Burl Ives recorded some of his songs.

In 1971 he recorded his Vermouth Rondo with the LONDON PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA for Purple/EMI/Capitol Records. It became his first international radio hit and is currently in re-release. His Hosanna Blue was the world”s most aired solo guitar recording from 1981-84.
