Moop Mama was founded in 2009 at the initiative of the saxophonist Marcus Kesselbauer, as a group of seven brass players, two percussionists and a rapper.[1] Kesselbauer is also the band's composer and arranger.[2] Their first "public rehearsal" was at Munich's Englischer Garten in 2009.[1] They became recognized for many short unannounced concerts in public space (Guerilla-Konzerte), such as pedestrian areas and parks, using a megaphone to amplify the rapper's voice. Sometimes the concerts were regarded as unwanted noise ( [de]), causing conflicts with the police.[2]

The band appeared on television, such as Inas Nacht[3] and  [de] in 2011,[4] and  [de] in 2012. They have performed regularly for the local Vereinsheim Schwabing of Bayerischer Rundfunk (BR). For the film  [de], they supplied part of the film score and appeared as actors.[5]

The band performed at festivals such as in 2012 at the Fusion Festival in Lärz, the Splash! festival in Ferropolis of Gräfenhainichen,[6] the  [de] in Switzerland, the  [de] in Rothenburg ob der Tauber,[7] the  [de] in Breitenbach am Herzberg, TFF Rudolstadt, Zelt-Musik-Festival in Freiburg, and the  [de] festival in Hamburg. They also played in the program of the 2012 Champions League final in Munich, and supporting Jan Delay at the Tollwood Festival.[8] They performed at the 2016  [de] in Großpösna, at the  [de] in Horb the same year, and at the 2019 Southside in Neuhausen ob Eck.[9]

In September 2012, the band played on an invitation of Goethe-Institut in Thessaloniki and Athens. In September 2018, the band played a spontaneous concert at the Hambach Forest to protest against its clearing by RWE.[10] On 21 June 2019, they performed as part of a large demonstration of Fridays for Future at the Aachen Tivoli for several thousand people.[11] The band played a 10th anniversary concert at the Tollwood in the Munich Musik-Arena on 18 July 2019, announced as playing "no finished beats, no samples, no electronic instruments" and "brute loud and secretly quiet".[12]
