The two friends, both in their mid-twenties, met each other in high school a long time ago. Their music taste was kind of different back then, different from now and different from one another. Zyno only liked loud music (Metal), Jaime mostly listened to tunes made by street-scumbags (Gangster Rap). This slightly changed...
Both guys already had and still have their own music projects (J: Phoney, Z: The Apollo Project) before playing together. That's why they started a bit giggly by recording curious a capella songs, most of them covers. However one of the recording sessions, which was accompanied by The Terry's, left them the #1 hit 'American Girls', a song that brought them countless gigs at student parties and even some fans from around the globe. But it was not the way they wanted to be heard...
Now fun and games are over. Sure, they do still play awesome 'sing-a-long' covers at parties, but as for their musical ambitions, they made a sharp U-turn.
Now JZ is all folksy, with acoustic guitars and such. Nobody really knows what angels sound like, but JZ's voices combined are probably the closest thing to it. Together with modest guitar play and pretty melodies they bring melancholic songs with a light summer-feel. Main influences? On Jaime's side Angus & Julia Stone, Bon Iver, Tallest Man on Earth, Editors and Snow Patrol. And while Zyno may share most of Jaime's influences, he brings a little bit of A Perfect Circle and some occasional Fink to the table. Just to keep things interesting.
Thank you for reading.
