   About ZIGMAN BIRD
The Zigman Bird concept emerged in 2003 with the debut CD, "Zigman Bird," from acclaimed Central Jersey singer/songwriter Keith Beck (Chuttering Mums/Alexander Kariotis and the Rock Opera Orchestra) and lyricist partner, R. Mutz. Drinking from the same fountain that has quenched the thirst of countless Garden State troubadors before them, both Keith and R. Mutz grew up with steady doses of the hippest rock n' roll found on the radio dial and distilled those influences to create the classic mix of memorable hooks, melodies, and cutting guitars found on their newest CD, "Ball Marie."

Now with a newly-christened band, Zigman Bird, Keith & R.'s songs have come together on "Balls Marie." All seasoned musicians, the members that make up Zigman Bird compliment Keith's style by bringing their own intrinsic sound. Guitarist David Devine (The Number Theory/Spiraling) joined Keith from the band's outset. Damian Gonzalez (Como Drive/Burning Up White/Spiraling) joined more recently, replacing "Scrappy Fing" Lambert on bass. Brand new on drums is Geoff Alpaugh, who previously had a stint with Spiraling and Number Theory under his belt.

This current incarnation emanates raw energy, pure rock and roll of the highest caliber. But dig a little deeper and there are even richer rewards for the listener. While the hooks and melodies drag you in by retaining the same feelings and vibe of the greats (Beatles, Lou Reed, Television, Iggy Pop, 70's punk), Zigman Bird offers a vision of their own, creating rock songs that capture the essence of the human condition and putting it to a beat. Something deep like that : )

Zigman Bird is available to play your bar mitzvah's and disco dance parties. They also play at the finer rock clubs throughout the NJ/NY/PA area. ZB's new record, "Balls Marie," is set for a November 2008 on Lump'N'Loaf Records.

Come on out to an upcoming ZB show and get acquainted with us and the tunes. Hope to see you all soon.
