Those two Zumpano albums are pure pop perfection. One of the few bands where you can hear a direct influence by the Zombies. I can't help but wish they put out many more.
@raynerad Oh.. Weren't there 4 members? Sometimes I see photos of the band with 5 people and then I see photos with 4 people and he isn't in them. Were there 5 members at one time? :-/
@wtf111884 I don't know who the 5th person any pictures would be. There were just the 4 in the band. Vocalist/guitarist Carl Newman, keyboardist Michael Ledwidge, bassist Stefan Niemann and drummer Jason Zumpano.
To my knowledge there was never an actual Karaoke file made. After I shot the footage, we edited it to look like a Karaoke video and sent it to Sub Pop where they added the words.
Bad as hell, love Zumpano waay underrated. Best thing Carl Newman ever did.

Do you have the Karaoke file for this vid? I'd love to rock this song at the Karaoke bar!
Wasn't this on one of the Sub Pop video compilations?
Wish I could remember what happened to my Zumpano t-shirt....

The best thing Jason Zumpano did was dump Robin McBride and the stupidest thing I did was pick her up, but great album.
