UKZ - RADIATION


Late 2008, Eddie Jobson started UKZ. The band released a CDEP in (early) 2009 and did some concerts in Japan in June of the same year.

A little later, August 2009, Eddie Jobson started a new band called "The Ultimate Zero Project". The band toured the U.S.West Coast and recently did some gigs in Poland and in Russia.
During one of the Russian concerts, UZ was joined on stage by Adrian Belew for a couple of King Crimson tunes.

On his website, however, Eddie Jobson states that UKZ is still alive. UKZ will be touring and will be recording an album.
And that's exellent news.
"Radiation", the CDEP that got released about a year ago, is a very impressive dittie. It lasts about 20 minutes, and it left me wanting more.
UKZ features Eddie Jobson, Aaron Lippert, Trey Gunn, Alex Machacek and Marco Minneman. How's that for a line-up?
Superb musicians and great music. All four tracks written by UKZ.

Progressive rock is more alive then ever...
