Zephaniah Stringfield is the name his mama gave him. From his Baba he was given his first guitar, and he has carried one ever since, centered in a perpetual singalong. After leaving the San Francisco Bay Area at 17 to confront a life of spontaneous song-seeking throughout the United States, he found his soul’s home in Taos, New Mexico, where he spends his time pruning fruit trees, honing his songwriting, practicing guitar and increasing his repertoire of Americana music. In solo performance or in collaboration with Taos’ multitude of talent, Zephaniah is a loving spectacle, radiating the curious wonder of human experience across civilizations, through archetypal stories of life before death, the birth of a new masculinity both tender and thorny and the warmth of sheltering from hard times together. Collaborators include the touring bluegrass band Foggy Memory Boys, his elusive country project Spud Gun Bandits, and musician/arborist Peter Oviatt, creator of Moonflower Sounds recording studio, who provides instrumentals and harmony vocals in both live performance and recordings, and co-produced Zephaniah’s newest full length album, Ipse Dixit.
If you ever get the urge to get in your car and take off without a plan, Zephaniah’s voice is your ideal traveling companion. If your date didn’t show at the bar, and you need the music to become your human connection for the night, he’s got you covered. His songs are the type you can never quite believe you are hearing for the first time and he made them for you. He wants you to sing, to dance, to call up an old friend when a line reminds you of their smile. Go ahead and swallow these tunes without salt. Let the truth burn and nourish you. And when Zephaniah tells you his tour van hit an alligator on the way to the show, let down your guard and take him at his word.
“Simultaneously poignant and toe-tapping, this is the good stuff” - KNCE Radio 93.5 Taos, NM
“No time is wasted with any of the songs. The music is straight to the point, concise and real. ”
