Some Zabocus reviews to date:

Independent Music Review Ireland-

Zabocus – sublime Americana –
Review by Robert Craven
"ZABOCUS are Ted Zahn and Steve Bonino who together, explore the richness of American song writing. All 12 tracks encompass the rich heritage with tracks that are reminiscent of the Southern Californian easy rolling of CSN&Y, Joni Mitchell and James Taylor on such tracks as ‘Wakeup EZ’, ‘Better Days’ and ‘Moonlight Tribe’. ‘Maggie’s Saloon’ is reminiscent of Randy Newman’s southern symphony, ‘Good Old Boys’ and captures a twinkle in the eye that is a constant through Bonino’s projects.

The songbook and heritage rolls back further with Zhan’s voice a gravelly blend of Kris Kristofferson, Woody Guthrie and Burl Ives on ‘Jackie’and compliments Bonino’s higher register on the songs ‘On our way’ and ‘Earth and Moon.’ Zahn’s voice brings an earthy gravitas to the tracks but has, like Bonino an innate understanding of dynamics and conveys each word with conviction.

What stands out the most on this album is the ease in which the pair interact, with a very high standard of backing musicians; Scott Connor, Kelly Moore, Marcus Dawson, Janine Miller, Elaine Zahn, Dino Colli, Damian Meadows, Debbie Tindle, David Gilman and Jake Barker adding to the tracks.

‘Will I see her again’, ‘Your eyes / Mistress’ and ‘One song at a time’ are for me, the strongest songs on the album, but there is something for everyone on ZABOCUS.

This is a wonderful album and a joy to review, this is a wonderful collaboration of two musicians firing on all cylinders and a recommended album to have playing while you’re chilling out, watching an August sunset and enjoying a slowly-aged malt or cold Zinfandel.

For those of you who loved Robert Plant and Alison Krauss’s ‘Raising sand’ this is a definite buy / download and you won’t be disappointed. Looking forward to their next collaboration, which will hopefully be sooner rather than later."

Linda K:

"I have had the very great pleasure to work with some incredible artists on some wonderful projects, but this reaches a whole new level of WOW!

...

I cannot say enough good things about the music of Zabocus!

It truly is American story-telling music at its very best, an eclectic blend of folk, pop, country, rock and even chamber that's at once easily accessible but extremely thought-provoking.

Such memorable tunes by two amazing songwriters and performers, Ted Zahn and Steve Bonino who I am blessed to call friends!

Do yourself a favor, check out this album, you won't be disappointed! Also available on Amazon and iTunes..."

John C:

I am listening to Zabocus. I love all the tunes -- they keep running through my head. I'm really enjoying Jackie but they're all great Maggie's Saloon I can just picture it I love the whole thing seriously.
