Hello there then. Z+ consists of Matt who plays guitar and sings and more recently Jenny who plays Cello when she's available. Live gigs range from acoustic to a punkier Electric set depending on the mood of everyone involved.
Some other people have said these nice things about Z+
"one of the best new West Country singer/songwriters we've heard for a while. A misty and melancholic voice hovers over plaintive and melodic strumming guitar and gentle dissonance. All is eerie, all is heartfelt, all is touched by meaning. Music to wake up to. He has the touch" -Qu Juncktions
"Otherwordly, haunting songs make this artist a true original" - The Songworks
"Beautiful, Mournful songs accomapanied by a gutar technique that'll make your jaw drop" -Live review from Nham Magazine
Z+ has had the good fortune to support the fantastic likes of Micah P Hinson, Alasdair Roberts, James Blackshaw, Mary Hampton, Thee stranded Horse, Thomas Truax, Simon Finn, Rose Kemp, Men Diamler, Clayton Blizzard,Ratface,Chris Corano,arrington de dionsyo, Charlie Parr and the proverbial many more. The New album "songs from the Early House" is out now on the Bristol based Bumtapes label.Z+ is always for looking for gigs and as long as he can cover his travel and have a sofa or a floor to sleep on he's up for playing anywhere. Hope you enjoy the songs.
Z+ is also responsible for this music (frequently with others)-have alisten if you fancy it eh?

Dude can you give me any more info about your gig tomorrow? How much is it to get in and who else is playing? Starts at 8 right? I'm hoping to come along if I can get someone else to come with me. Cheers, Oli
Check it out! I wrote a free book on music production! It's for total beginners, but if you aren't new to music production, maybe you'll still learn something... at least you can send it to your friends who always want to ask you a billion questions about music production! It's totally free too; my goal with this is to accumulate as many BFF's as possible.
Hey dude, do you know what the tracklist is for that CDr you gave me? It's not the one you posted up in a blog because there are 9 songs on it rather than 10. Maybe it's similar though? I really like it by the way!
P.S. What time is the gig meant to start? It doesn't say on the website. Two acts so I don't know if it will start early and finish early or start late?
Hey, cheers for the Timberwolf link, I like the guitar stuff.
I'm going to be at the gig tomorrow I hope. Could you bring one of the older albums along then? Sorry for the late notice. I'll give you a bit of money for it. See you then!
