"THE MUSIC FED OFF OF THIS CIRCUS-STYLE ATMOSPHERE....I WAS AN ACTIVE PARTICIPANT IN A VAUDEVILLE SPECTACLE, SOME SORT OF BEWILDERING SHOWCASE OF PURE ENTERTAINMENT."
Erica Grossman - Boulder Weekly
"LISTENING TO POMME DE TERRE IS A BREATH OF FRESH AIR AND THE FIRST STEPS IN THE MAKING OF A NEW GENRE. THIS SONIC MASTERPIECE HAS TIMBRES AND TONES THAT FILL HOLES IN NEW WAYS ONLY THE TRULY CREATIVE MINDS CAN."
David Pennington - Colo Music Buzz
"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".

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.

ZEBRA JUNCTION IS A POWER DUO OF SEXTET PROPORTIONS
Hailing from Denver, Colorado, Flitz Alan & Micah Lundy are currently wrapping up their 4th studio album and planning American and European tours.
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, Tim Burton, and the White Stripes baked a cake together, it would taste and sound a lot like Zebra Junction!
ZJ was again nominated as one of Denver's top bands in 2008. They recorded a musical album with Denver's own comedy superstar Josh Blue to be released in Spring/Summer 09. This album includes a live performance w/ Blue at Red Rocks Amphitheater in front of a sold-out crowd!
IF YOU TAKE THE TIME TO LISTEN YOU WILL HEAR:
Zebra Junction, both live and in the studio, melds together a deeply eclectic group of styles. They seamlessly move from funked-up bluegrass to drunken
Tin Pan Alley ragtime; from the Celtic sounds of a whaling ship, to colorful electronic grooves, to effortless harmonies. This gutsy-rootsy, high energy power duo, with their creativity and unique repertoire, conjures up a fresh experience that takes the listener from living room to amphitheater. All aboard!
