John Roy Zat

John Roy Zat (aka John Croizat) is a singer, songwriter, fiddler and guitar picker, who has been performing in the San Francisco Bay Area and beyond since the 1970s.  His songs have been recorded by Kate Wolf, by Banish Misfortune, Caroline Herring, and others.  With Appalachian influences, Cajun, dust bowl, and a dash of rockabilly, JRZ comes from a long line of American singer-songwriters who occupy that space between country and folk music. Some folks call it Americana, some call it Roots, Alt Folk, or New Folk.  Whatever you call it, think John Prine, Rodney Crowell and Jesse Winchester -- you get the idea.
