Search - Zyrah's Orange :: Body

Zyrah's Orange is a groove-trip-jazz power trio from Boston, MA. ZO is proud to present Body, the follow-up to 1999's Mind. On this upbeat album, ZO showcases both their inventive songwriting and their top-notch improvisation skills. Body establishes Zyrah's Orange as a jamband with real tunes, as capable of catchy pop/rock as going deep into a jam. Drawing on their extensive live experience, the tracks have a vibrant, human feel. Most of the recording process started with the band playing live in the studio, a feel that translates well into the extended jazz-oriented jams ("Message Machine", "Maceo"). But ZO did not ignore the power of the studio, used in concise pop song craft ("Best Day", "Satisfied"), layers of sound and vocals ("More Best Day"), and just plain studio wackiness ("Leave"). Formed by Elliot Page (guitar, vocals) in early 1995, the addition of Ben Thibault on bass/vocals and Dan Gullotti on drums/vocals completes the lineup for the Boston-based trio. After years of regional gigging, the release of their first full length CD Mind was well received by fans, the press, and college radio stations. Now with the release of Body, ZO is primed to win over rock and jazz fans worldwide.
