Sparrows Gate is the music of Zebedee Zaitz (vocals, guitar), Joel Tolbert (keys, slide guitar), Anthony Zaitz (bass, vocals), and Joshua Barnhart (drums, vocals). They are currently in the process of working on a full length album. Residing in the sleepy Central Coast of California, they can be seen playing shows all over the West coast.
"Singer Zebedee's raspy vocals and charismatic swagger complement soaring Petty-esque guitars in an almost seamless marriage of modern structure and classic style."
My attempts to create an Open at the Mama Buzz Cafe have failed. The will be no open mic at the Mama Buzz cafe. The "Every Second Sunday" open mic has been double booked for the second month in a row. It is clear I'm not suited to be the host of an open mic. Thank you all for your interest and support. My sincerest apologies to all musicians poets that hoped and even planned for this open mic.
Man, I finally took a shower today and giggled when I smelled the campfire smoke in my hair. Such a surreal night in Big Sur singing together round the fire.

Hello, I'm just letting everyone know that our songs are free to download now!!! At the bottom of my MySpace page, check out the iLike music player (not the myspace player at the top of the page!). You can download all the songs off of the self-titled album there for free, I hope you all do so. Take care, Jim (Cassmark).
Damn, I was hoping to catch you guys on my way up next week. Headed up to see my friends new baby in Santa Cruz next week but I'll be back down here by your Nov. 19th show. -Tom (from Tommy Santee Klaws)
