Zenith

About Me


We've just had a loverly review from Stephen Morris at BBC Glos. The full article can be found here:
Zenith Review on BBC Introducing
There's also a 20 minute Interview with Rob Champion, BBC introducing presenter, recorded in January on the BBC GLoucestershire site, just follow the links.
Zenith have been together for just over a year. We met when Sam put an ad up in a music shop, and John was musically bored post blokey rock band split up so gave her a call.....we hit it off (musically!) pretty quickly and love writing and performing together, and will be doing the usual open mics and little gigs of our own over the coming months.
We're mainly a studio thing right now, as we're writing and recording every chance and inspiration that we get....when the wind blows in the right direction you'll find us with a guitar and a couple of voices at an open mic in Bristol, Cheltenham or Stroud, which we love.....this bit used to say..."one day soon we'll work out how to fully take our elctronic sound out live"....well we did - first gig of 2009 is a Wychwood Festival Showcase at the Frog & Fiddle in Cheltenham, and we're puttign together a mini tour for March :)
2009 is starting to look fun...we're getting bits and bobs of local radio play, and some magazine features are on the cards. but to be completely honest we'll be doing day jobs / tax dodging at the same time. Some day's we get all keen and promote ourselves, other days we get home from work, cook the tea, watch TV and pay the phone bill!
We've just had some great help form the Loverly people at Perfect Planet Records to put together a little EP.......mucho thanks to Dave The Hat @ FFG studios as always.
There are album and music video plans afoot.......so keep on watching and listening to this space! John's new Vision Division thing can be found in our top mates....."music that's too unzenith for Zenith" and he's looking for other collaborators so get in touch over there too perhaps.
Debut EP due out NOW! on CD and available to download....
