Minnesota Native Trio Release Debut Album And Announce Fall Tour

Online, August 6, 2010 (Newswire.com) - (MINNEAPOLIS, MN) - Kazyak announces the limited release of their debut album, A Beautiful Brontosaurus on August 10 through GroundUp Productions at Cheapo Records in Uptown at 6:00 p.m. The much anticipated debut will kick off the trio's fall tour.

Like the band name, the music on this album has the same feeling of being half composed and half improvised. Yet at its core, Kazyak is a rock band.

Featuring 11 original songs, the full-length CD showcases wide ranging form and structure while using skillful improvisation that shys away from musical molds. The trio's rollicking jams and melodic vocals blend jazz, bluegrass, and even classical elements to create a fresh sound that is not contained by traditional labels.

"Without a doubt, Kazyak is made up of the most talented musicians we know," say The Okee Dokee Brothers, a renowned Kindie band. "Having written, recorded and performed extensively with Kazyak, we know first-hand that their creativity and musicianship have no limits."

Much like the album, Kazyak's live performances are energetic shows that incorporate dancing lights and lyrically-driven instrumental sections that gather a crowd and tell a story.

"This album will not disappoint," says Austin music writer, Indy Zoeller.

With roots deep in the Land of 10,000 Lakes, Jed Anderson, Peter Frey, and Danny Vitali learned their craft together. They are people who love music, are enthusiastic about what they do, and want to share it.

The band recently moved home to Minneapolis from Austin, TX, where they perfected their sound and recorded the current album.

"We feel such a strong sense of community and support of local live music in both the South and Midwest," says guitarist /vocalist Peter Frey. "The fans are so loyal, but there's no place like home. We just had to release the album here in Minnesota."

Kazyak is currently booking for a fall tour in support of their debut album, A Beautiful Brontosaurus. For a preview of the album, visit: www.Kazyak.com.
