Zip Tang's long-awaited CD - Luminiferous Ether - is now available online!
More than a year in the making, this self-produced, labor-of-love contains a compelling range of exciting material for your hungry ears. From the rockin' Zappaesque "Tower of Tuna" to the epic Floydish "Doctor Plush" this CD has something for every fan of underground rock music.
PLUS - as a tribute to the most challenging cover song we ever attempted, this CD includes our interpretive rendition of Emerson, Lake & Palmer's Tarkus - more than 18 minutes worth of classic progressive rock. You've just gotta hear it to believe it. This was a musical mountain that we just had to climb.
So if you've seen one of our rare live performances, or caught us on YouTube, or perhaps know us through a connection to The Hush Sound, check it out. Luminiferous Ether is available on CD Baby - http://cdbaby.com/cd/ziptang
Thanks for your interest and support.

The irreverence of Frank Zappa / the majesty of King Crimson / the vocal harmonies of Yes / these powerful ingredients can all be tasted in the invigorating flavor of Zip Tang. Four well-seasoned musicians fire-up tasty meats and add intoxicating spices to create a musical banquet starting with their first original release, Tower Of Tuna.
Underground / off the charts / progressive / an acquired taste / like a fine red wine, Zip Tang is not quickly guzzled by the masses but lovingly savored by connoisseurs. A mature yet muscular rock sound for serious listeners, Zip Tang combines elements of arena rock and modern jazz to create finely crafted songs that echo in your mind long after the sound waves have stopped tickling your cochlea.
Zip Tang’s breadth of musical experience and instrumental expertise serve as a reminder that all is not lost - that our strength is in our differences, and there are still those who care deeply about their craft - choosing the mantle of obscure integrity over the albatross of ubiquitous vulgarity. Discriminating listeners who like their music hot and slightly burned at the edges will love the taste of Zip Tang .
