Moses played with Roland Kirk in 1964–65 while he was still a teenager.

In the early 1970s he was a member of Compost with Harold Vick, Jumma Santos, Jack Gregg () and Jack DeJohnette.

His first session as a leader was in 1975; his releases for Gramavision in the 1980s were critically acclaimed.

He is also the author of the drum method book Drum Wisdom.

Moses currently performs alongside John Lockwood, Don Pate, and John Medeski with noted guitarist Tisziji Muñoz and teaches at New England Conservatory.
