Zenzi torch The Moon Tower at Dunedin Brewery: 05.09.26
Before the Whippersnap Music & Arts Festival in February, we heard that a new collaborative project called Zenzi would be playing. At the time, we wrote:
Not sure we’ve ever had a Bay Area supercollective before, but we certainly do now. Shane Lavigne will have to expound later on the origins of the band: From MiniM, Brendan Havens, guitar, vocals; and Shane Lavigne, percussion; Mike Nivens (Ajeva), guitar; Miguel Lantigua (Antelope, Tropico Blvd), bass; Kelsey Sharp (Tamayo), keyboards, vocals; Kat Hines, vocals; Mac Schmitz (Voodoo Visionary), drums; and the three members of The Sooza Horns: Adrienne Widener, trumpet; Brian Burwell, trombone; and Ryan Gamberino, tenor & baritone saxophones.
Their first show was wonderful, a rocked-out yacht rock-type show with songs from the ’60s and ’70s for the most part, ones everybody could sing along with. It was so much fun. Since then, we’ve been waiting for the second appearance of Zenzi.
It happened May 9 in The Moon Tower at Dunedin Brewery, a sold-out performance that once again painted huge smiles in all the faces in the place.Chris Fama was the sound engineer, trying to tame nine wild beasts on stage, and Sean Dobbins of Conscious Sound System & Lighting was tossing the lights and lasers in dizzying patterns. Bravo to both gents!…
