After over one year in the studio, guitarist Neil Zaza's new CD for 2004 is here - "Melodica" features Zaza's trademark heavy singing guitar style over the 73 minutes and 15 tracks of instrumental guitar rock. Joined by heavyweight musicians such as Bill Cioce on drums, Mark Leach on Hammond B3 and Doug Johns on bass, the material features varied tonal colorations, compelling compositions, heartfelt explorations and driving grooves, held together with Zaza's sculptured and melodically evocative guitar lines, phrases and solos. "Melodica" is aptly named, as rock fans will find the tracks here sticking with them long after the CD has finished playing.
