I posted most of these on Facebook already, but I thought I would stick them here as well. Details of the Secret Project should be coming very soon, but in the meantime, here are some photos and a video from our first weekend of recording last month.
To celebrate Zubatto Syndicate’s second birthday, all merch is 20% off for November. Grab a t-shirt, stock up on CDs or LPs, or buy one for a music-loving friend for the holidays (vinyl makes a great gift!).

It’s been slow news at Boscology HQ for the past few months but that doesn’t mean there hasn’t been a ton of work going on behind the scenes. I’ve been working on performances for Zubatto, writing new music and making plans for the coming year. The main event is the first real stirrings of the [...]
