Multi-instrumentalist George Zhen has been creating original music for nearly two decades including stints with bands such as Love Canal, Black Janet and Some People's Children. At long last, Zhen has harnessed his penchant for catchy song craft and directed it into a self-titled debut CD.
Organic, honest and sometimes ironic, this CD contains 8 tracks of homespun originals written and produced by Zhen. Wander through a veritable fairground of character-driven songs that chronicle the adventures of lovers, warriors and falling stars.

Robbed of his vision in 2002, Zhen threw himself into music and began writing the songs that would comprise this CD. Although it would be easier to be bitter, Zhen finds himself optimistically poised.
"If I won the lottery tomorrow, you know what I would be doing?" he asks. "This, right here. These songs, this project, is the most defining work I have ever done. This is me, absolutely, honestly, on my terms. It would be rewarding if people were to like it, but if not, who cares? Surely the alien anthropologists will dig it."
Maybe you will, too.

George wrote everything - he appears to be smarter than me...
I played bass on "Clover" though. I am amazing!

Great disk

This CD says a lot about the artist. I can tell that there is a lot of feeling that was injected into this music. The message behind the songs says more than the music itself.
