CD Reviews

Order Info

“This band is HOT! I like the versatility that is displayed on Texas Cufflinks. Each tune has a new subtle style while remaining true to the band’s overall sound. How can a band from the north capture the soul of the south? Who cares, just enjoy!” —The Walrus, 94.1 The Rock Station, Corona, California, USA

“Loved the CD. Zed Head reminds me of a mix of Stevie Ray Vaughn and ZZ Top. They sound like they belong on the Avenue in New Orleans, not Ontario. I’ve worked in both bars and stadiums and this sounds like the type of band I’d love to book. They’d draw a big crowd and keep everyone into it all night long. —Jeremiah McElwain, WFMQ 91.5 FM, Lebanon, Tennessee, USA

"Quite simply...ZEDHEAD! zedhead! My God Guys what you have here is one super fine farther humping good time in yer face boogie! It really puts to shame those southerners (Ed's note: ZED HEAD loves southerners AND their Dixie tuneage!). I play tracks from your cd every, and I mean every week on my Shades Of Blue programme. So over the last month or so, the whole cd has been played and I've been getting requests by the handful, demanding MORE ZEDHEAD and I'm more than happy to oblige. You guys are always on me cd player in the car. I LOVE YER!! Gawd love yer!!! And KEEP ON ROCKIN'. Keep the faith!!! -- "Marvelous Marc Field", 94.7 FM, Coral Coast, Australia

Brief Bio

Zed Head is full blown, full tilt, roots rock played with emotion, balls, conviction, and unbelievable stage presence.

Zed Head includes totally effing hot guitar chops from one of the best live guitarists on earth, Neil Chapman. He is a MUST SEE for any fan of the guitar! Fog Johnny on bass and Chris Lingard on the kit form the rock solid rhythm section of Zed Head. These guys have it GOING ON with all three lads contributing to the full vocal spectrum. Of course the band would not be complete without Smilin’ Bob Adams who emphatically compliments Zed Head’s full, powerful sound when he pulls out his weapon...the Blues Harp.

All four of these guys major in excitement!

Over the past several months, Zed Head completed a busy schedule of outdoor festivals and concerts. Their shows included the Toronto Distillery District’s Parti-Gras, the first annual Wasaga Beach Fest, the Barrie Waterfront Blues Festival, the prestigious Terry Fox Run for Cancer concert at Toronto City Hall, the Toronto Beaches Jazz Festival and the Belleville, River Front Festival. On an international note, the band toured the southern United States where they were honored once again to headline the annual Boo Benefit (Bikers for Burn Victims), in Jefferson, Texas.

Other points of interest for Zed Head included a recent guest appearance on Breakfast Television and featured audio spots on Global Television’s “Biker TV.” This nationally televised half hour of motorcycle mania served to illustrate Zed Head’s penchant for Harleys, Humbuckers, and Hot Roots Rock!

Recorded by Terry Brown at the "Blister Factory" in Toronto, Paul LaChapelle at " Quest Studios" in Oshawa, and Sean Munavish at "Studio B" in Scarborough, their album, TEXAS CUFFLINKS seriously SMOKES. Zed Head is presently enjoying radio play on stations from all over Europe, North America, Australia and all points in between thanks to RadiodirectX.

Whether in a concert hall, a stadium, or in your favourite club, Zed Head brings the party atmosphere and DELIVERS for your event’s success.
