About Me



ZEBRA & GIRAFFE MINI BIO
Zebra & Giraffe is the name of a new force pressing itself into the hearts and minds of music fans – and even on first listen it’s clear that Z&G’s debut longplayer, ‘Collected Memories’, is every bit as unique as the animals that its named after.In fact, at this stage (autumn 2008), the cleverly named act is actually the 12-lettered pseudonym of Johannesburg music wunderkind, Greg Carlin. Carlin is Zebra & Giraffe and the 10-songs on ‘Collected Memories’ are an announcement of his own special take on making music to all who hear it.
