JACK STOCK TRIBUTE


The mysterious Jack Stock was a superstar in the open mike scene in New Jersey. Beloved by fans, Mr. Stock lived for the day and the moment. Then, as if to consummate the rock star myth, he was gone — felled by heart disease just into his 50's. Read the article about Jack and the recent documentary film about his life from The Princeton Packet

Lead Zigman, Keith Beck, has an appearance in the documentary movie, along with with Mike Grau and John Gray, pictured here. Mike Grau engineered Jack Stock's "Light of the Moon" cd and John Gray lent his talents with his band, Stone Soup, in covering one of Jack's songs in the documentary.

GEOFFF ALPAUGH ON DRUM THRONE

06.21.2008

Zigman Bird has been rehearsing with new drummer, Geoff Alpaugh, for the past five or six weeks and the results are nothing less than fantastic. He used to play with the Number Theory and currently plays in Down with the Wizard. We put a lot of pressure on Geoff (aka. Scallions, aka.as Dupree) and he's taken on the task of ZB drummer quite well. Thanks Geoff!! So make sure you take a ZB show in soon to check out the new groove in formation.


ZB NEW SONG LIVE FROM GUITARIST DAVID'S LIVING ROOM:

This past Valentine's Day, Zigman Bird recorded a new tune called "Valentine Girl". It was just a little impromptu thing recored off of Keith's camera. Hope you like it.

The band has been busily writing new material for the next album. It will likely be an ep of brand new stuff. Titles include "Angel", "Crazy", "Valentine Girl", and "Sunday School". So far, it's quite diferent than its predecessor and has quite a varied style



LUMP'N'LOAF RECORDS

As the brain child of Zigman Bird bassist Damian Gonzalez,Lump'N'Loaf Records was founded with one mission in mind - to cast a spotlight on cutting-edge and eclectic music that has been born out of the highly talented, yet relatively unknown central New Jersey music scene. L'N'L will continue to wave its' middle finger at the popular, cookie-cutter record industry by striving to offer a true "alternative" to music listening and social commentary. Everyone's excited about the recently created The Antaris, consisting of former members of Trio of Madness and The Number Theory. They played their first show at Buddie's a couple weeks back and it showed they're off to a great start. Find out more about L'N'L records here.
