Well the moment has come when David and I reveal the fruits of our crazy journey over the last five and a bit months in the form of an album; entitled Zomb Zomb Zoom.
We posted our first collaboration at the end of July 2015; The Other Side of the Wall. We chose a band name (as suggested by Corina) in August sometime at which point we became the Time Zone Zombies. We posted our latest song on 1 January 2016; Goat Grazing / Whispering Grass. Somewhere in between we somehow developed ten original songs and a couple of demos (so make it 12 original songs); and videos to prove it was really us.
Somewhere along the line the process for coming up with new song ideas became a little interactive. So thank you for your challenges and requests - more cowbell, a happy song and a Christmas song were added to the mix.
Jason Mraz says you need to write 100 songs before you get a good one. So... 12 down right?! I definitely feel like I've learned a lot. I'm also more and more conscious of how much more I'd like to learn. But it's sure been fun.
A huge thanks to everyone who cheered us along. It's been very motivating. The preview will give you a stroll down memory lane if you've been travelling with us, or might contain a few surprises if you haven't. It's been a fun ride.

Wow, you two are awesome. What a huge undertaking, from writing and performing the songs to having the electronic prowess to be able to create and produce and actual album without even the benefit of direct collaboration. That's huge. I'm so impressed. When can we buy your first album.
