Daniel Zelonky

Born: February 10, 1957

Resisting narrow stylistic or genre conventions since he first appeared as Low Res in 1994, Daniel Zelonky has emerged as a keeper of the flame of ambitious and adventurous, yet rambunctiously entertaining American music. He has woven any number of improbably wondrous hybrid styles with a mischeivous humor and unabashed over-the-top approach to musical arrangement and expression, garnering critical praise and a cult following since his 1994 debut on record. Henceforth, Zelonky’s work (and band) will go under the name "Suite Crude Revue" to reflect the increasing propensity to this sort of showmanship

Bobby Lee

Born: January 2, 1976

Bobby was born Robert D. Lee on January 2 1976 in Brownwood, a small city in the heart of Texas. He grew up in church listening to the bass,organ and piano players so Gospel was his first introduction to music. Bobby's father and siblings all grew up playing music in their parents church in Tyler and Fort Worth Texas. Coming from a family of music seems to be the reason music has been apart of his life. Bobby has been composing music since his early teens. Around the age of 10 he took lessons in guitar for a short time. As Bobby recalls "I don't think my mother had fun sitting outside in the car as 30 minute lessons would turn into an hour or so just from jamming to old 60's tunes, my teacher called me "Chuck Berry"! At 16 Bobby brought his first keyboard and recorder and started composing his own style of instrumental jazz

TzeMan

Born: June 18, 1962

[TzeMan is pronounced "Zay-Man"]

So what's a middle-aged, Chinese composer/arranger with a full-time day job trying to do starting his music biz at this late juncture? Sounds crazy? Maybe I am! I call my music "Spa for the Soul." Does that give you a clue?

My music's mostly instrumental: Smooth-Jazz, Jazz-Fusion, Pop-Classical, Adult Contemporary.

Why try starting a music career now? First, there's hi- speed Internet--it's the first time I can reach potential fans directly--no middlemen! Also, I need a creative outlet to help de-stress from my hectic day job. Finally, I just gotta get the music out the door before I kick the bucket, ya know!!
