Zen for Primates
Caffe Lena
Saratoga Springs, NY
Sounds like Kronos Quartet meets Led Zeppelin and Gene Pitney in a Munich beer hall where Marlene Dietrich is the barmaid. --Tower/Pulse Magazine ///
Zen for Primates is a highly entertaining, strange and beautiful cabaret ensemble from Bethlehem, PA. The five-piece band offers brilliant, sardonic vocals by T. Roth ("T. Roth is a deliciously original weapon!" - Rolling Stone) backed by a wild amalgam of pop, classical, world, rock, blues and jazz music, for a sound that has left critics baffled yet raving for years.
Instrumentally, they are two violins, cello, saxophone and electric guitar. In addition to some surprising cover material, their usual themes include drinking, smoking, living, dying, perfection, sheepherding, indecision, insanity and Italian food.
Note: Caffe Lena is an all-ages listening room that does not serve alcohol. Desserts, light vegetarian fare, and organic fair-trade coffee are offered at all shows. //
