Zenzizenzo-Miami AZ, 4/17/26

 

It seems safe to state that Zenzizenzo had a great time playing at Miami Loco Fest in Miami last Friday evening. It's always fun to drive over to that area from Tucson. The saguaro are noticeably older along the highway and Miami is kind of freak haven, at least it is in its small downtown area. I was happy to see that the twin towns are recovering from last year's terrible flood which destroyed a ton of property. They've dug out and just kept going. Zenzizenzo got to play our first gig as a Rock-based band, and we play we did, about forty minutes of electric guitar/drums instrumental sounds. I play from charts that Nathan prints out. Don't know how he plays all of the changes from memory, but he does, and pretty much without flaw. There weren't tons of people out there on Friday evening, but some people expressed appreciation for our music and we gave away a lot of stickers. After we played we hung around and watched the other bands of the evening at various Miami Loco Fest performance spots. Super stoked to have participated. Many thanks to Lob for hooking it up!

Below: drums and pedals. I put a hand painted bass drum resonator head, painted by visual artist Ilan Laks in 1999, onto my bass drum. 

Above: Nathan tuning up.

Below: Zenzizenzo dudes post set serious. Good thing we didn't get pulled over, Nathan's MDC shirt could have been a problem.

 It's our hope to get some shows happening in Tucson at some point in the near future.

Zenzizenzo plays this Friday evening in Miami, AZQ

 

We are one of the acts playing the 2026 Miami Loco Art & Music Festival this Friday, 4/17! Zenzizenzo will play at the Sullivan Street Stage at 6:30 PM sharp! Our first show in two years and our presentation will be very different. Looking forward to debuting our next sound evolution for some folks in Miami!

My drumming is kind of wonky at times, but George's guitar is fire and this duo project was good fun and kind of creative I think. Fun times at the end of a certain cycle.

One track from a Bandcamp release. I'm not sure that anyone besides me ever listened to this track, recorded fifteen years ago in the garage of an Oakland apartment building. I thought that we were making the music of "the future" but the future wasn't that interested.

A fun, weird show. We played in the middle slot. I basically had one ring modulator working so I just used it for the entire set. Cullen played percussion and an electric drill. Films were made by us, too. Thanks to Tea Wizard for coming to the show and taking these shorts that were posted on Instagram. More good times in Tucson!

Performing this Wednesday evening at Golden Saguaro!

 

I will be adding sound to a short film this Wednesday at Golden Saguaro in Tucson!

The project is called Jazzner Dumpster Fire and we will be playing along to films that we've made. I will be utilizing ring modulators and not much else. There will also be percussion in our sound set up.
