ZäNKT’s quest to find a new singer is now over. Enter Leo. A Brazilian native turned Rhode Islander who had the remedy to Keith and Ed’s incomplete band blues. After learning about the band on everyone’s favourite website MySpace.com, Leo took it upon himself to download “Lil Queen” and record vocals on it. The boys from ZäNKT were very impressed with the outcome. Keith said, “Leo took the working title for the song and out of pure desire and talent made his way into the band, just by an email". Due to their difference in location, the band has had to take on a more modern approach to their recording style, by emailing each other material they’ve worked on instead of spending time in the studio. “Imagine Lennon and McCartney in 1967 with emails”, said Keith. So what can be expected from the band now that they have a vocalist who can walk the walk and talk the talk? “We are looking for a bassist who is on the same page as us in all aspects”, said Keith, “bearing influences like John Paul Jones, Jaco Pastorius and Paul McCartney. We want someone who is blues rock based. Loud and Rude!” In the mean time ZäNKT has had the pleasure of having rock veteran and long time friend Randy Gregg (www.RandyGregg.com) lay down some tracks for them until they find a suitable bassist. While finding the final member of this band is not an easy feat, Keith, Ed and Leo remain positive about the situation. They know they are on the brink of something really fresh musically once it all comes together. Keith said when they find the right bassist, “it will complete what is lost in Rock - n Roll today. Unpredictability, danger and some guitar solos!!!!” -Lisa G [Escandela Promotions]
