Zach Deputy @ the Middle East Friday 2/24/12

I got a chance to interview Zach Deputy back in January 2008 when I with with Eyes on the Back Door. EOTBD was pretty much an idea at this point and we went to do a weekend tour with him in Georgia. He was a one man band, a master looper, and toured up, down, and everywhere. Well, he's still touring like a champ, but this time around he's with a whole new band and I think a few of them are local Bostonians.

I caught the show in Florida at the Culture Room earlier this month on 2/9/12, (or the last hour and a half of it, I was on vacation and still hung over at 10p.m. curled in the fetal position in the back of my buddies car, Florida can do that to you). They sounded like they've been for together for years, you guys are in for a treat. I can't wait to see it from the beginning :)

Note: I took this picture backstage and could only muscle down 2 beers at the show, I eventually recovered  and listened to jams at Kappeli Compound until the wee hours of the night.




Zach's new record Another Day,Released: September 2011 is about transformation and change, and let me tell you he's matured into a versatile musician. I had a friend ask me what type of music it was, I told him awesome music, it's too tough to pinpoint, he's all over the place, in a good way, a very very good way. But if you insist on a description this is what he calls his music:
Island-Infused Drum N' Bass Gospel Ninja Soul,
ya, that is Awesome.

My favorite is song "Home" from his first album, you can download for free on his website with a bunch of others: Free Home Download

Make sure you don't miss this show. It's his first time around with a band and they're meshing big time.
