Erich Zann

Erich Zann was born in 2003 from the ashes of a previous band, Dyer’s Eyes. From that band, only the drummer Paolo, the guitar player Roberto (founder members) and the bass player Carlo remained in the current line-up. Under their directions Erich Zann began to compose and so making his firsts steps towards an indeterminate destination oriented between thrash and progressive sounds.

Nevertheless the first year of life was characterized by frequent line-up changes due to the need to find the elements that still were missing. In fact we saw many different guitarists and singers taking part in the Erich Zann project until the critical encounter with the current guitar player Luca, that happened in the spring of 2004. But a question was still left unanswered: who would give the voice to Erich Zann? After a few months and a decisive change of direction, it was decided that Erich should have a female voice, Giulia’s one. So this is how it all began. Erich Zann started to play live joining twice (in 2005 and in 2006) the national contest Deliriock festival, and arriving both times at the final stage, after being chosen by a jury among hundreds of bands.

In 2005 Erich Zann won the Rock Beer Festival, an other national contest. After that, in 2006 the band found its way to the local final of the international “Emergenza” contest.

The latest act of this story is the self-production of our first demo, “Some Music Of” . The Cd was recorded at Dodi’s Sound Studio during the winter of 2005 and contains five of our songs.
