"THIS IS FRESH, EXCITING, AND SONICALLY VIBRANT. I AM SO EXCITED TO NOT ONLY ENJOY WATERBORNE, BUT TO HAVE HAD ZEBRA JUNCTION PLAY RED ROCKS. THIS IS A MUST-HAVE PIECE OF ART"

"...PURE CREATIVE GENIUS! I HOPE EVERYONE LOVES (POMME DE TERRE) AS MUCH AS I DO". - Gus Skinas- Super Audio Center Studios (Mastering Engineer for the 30th anniversary of Dark Side of the Moon).
WHEN IT COMES TO CHANGING LIFE'S DIRECTION THROUGH EMBRACING ALTERNATIVE PERCEPTIONS OF REALITY, SCIENTOLOGY HASN'T GOT A THING ON ZEBRA JUNCTION. IF YOU BUY ONE ALBUM, MAKE IT POMME DE TERRE. - Steve Millin- 99.5 The Mountain
ZEBRA JUNCTION IS A POWER DUO OF SEXTET PROPORTIONS
Hailing from Denver, Colorado, Shawn “Flitz Alan” Palmer & Micah Lundy are currently wrapping up their third album, and planning American and European tours for early 2008.
Working with a collection of rare, hybrid and homespun instruments, this power duo's Vaudeville approach includes "creative" percussion, baritone guitars, and such unconventional instruments as the banjo-ukulele, a hyper-modified Playskool tape deck used for "scratch", toy piano, and numerous samplers and effects to morph "old school" into "no school".
If Tom Waits fronted the White Stripes with a smattering of Radiohead technology, you might have a sound like Zebra Junction!
The Summer of 2007 saw ZJ playing in front of sold out crowds at the world famous Red Rocks Amphitheatre and Denver's prestigious Paramount Theatre, as well as being nominated for the third time as one of Denver's best bands.
