Bio
All artists hope to defend the heart, defend their convictions- never compromise. At least we hope all artists do. We know many don't succeed, they sell out or buy in- or just plain give up. In their youth they are invigorated, enlivened and inspired. They want to fight against, rise above, and stand tall.
It's sad, it's a phenomenon that seems to creep up on the individual like a silent killer, or a mind altering disease. Fans scream out in question, what happened to the people, the musicians who used to enlighten with such honesty and sing with such poignancy? Where is the relevancy?
It's not just in music, it's everywhere- and not only in the art world.
But as artists, Zella Mayzell feel a responsibility. Not to be idolized, not to look down on or judge those we consider "fallen" or "complacent". As artists and as humans we are as flawed as the next group on the next wave of whatever the "next big thing is". There are no delusions of grandeur- only a hope that we can fight against the temptations and woes of the art and business world- for a purpose. To get the music out there, without watering down, without whiting out a single line written. To get the music out there and inspire rock out sessions on long car drives, to inspire listeners to stand up and try harder. To get the music out there for the times when doors are slammed in anger or hands are held in solace. We want more than anything to chase after the feeling that we have now in our youth all the way into our respective futures. The feeling that we are all here for a reason, the words we say, the relationships we build, the lives we intersect with- and the songs we sing- do matter, and matter greatly.
Not for ego, not for attention, and not for fame- but because we're all in this together and making music is for us, helping out the best way we know how.

okay, so about 10 months ago i searched \'i wear my
sunglasses at night\' on iTunes and expected the corey
heart version to come up. as always, iTunes didnt have
what i wanted, but instead it had a killer acoustic
cover of the song by some band i\'ve never heard of. i
figured, what the hell, it cant be all that bad, and i
downladed it. tuut, that new band i\'d never heard of
was amazing and became my new obsession. you guys are
AMAZING! come to boston and play a show here please?!
come to anywhere in the northeast, for that matter, and
i\'ll be there. x3

Im from Maryland but moved to SC and I miss my local
B-more/DC music. So you guys should book a show in
Columbia or Charlotte or Spartanburg.

The 80 in a 25 video is amazing. I love the fact that
this song actually means something and isn\'t just some
stupid rambling put to music.
