For the band's second record, the line-up has been expanded to six players, including Becky, Ian, and Jessica, and the band renamed The Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra and Tra-la-la Band. "Born Into Trouble...," while anchored in an underlying sadness and mourning about this failed world, reveals a decidedly angrier, more urgent face as this phenomenal ensembl   [ read more ]

The Pretty Little Lightning Paw EP was originally available only at shows during The Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra & Tra-La-La Band European tour in Winter 2004. The EP contains all new songs, with a total running time of just over 30 minutes. What began as studio sketches evolved, through a few intense drunken nights, into beautiful, unfettered songs that confirm Mt. Zion's ongoing reinvention as a vocal-driven outfit and reveals Efrim's growing strength as a lyricist. The results are deeply    [ read more ]

On their follow-up, the band luckily, remarkably, continue to grow, evolve, and get even better. Things start in a deceptively familiar fashion on   [ read more ]
