   About August Zimbal
August Zimbal is a well known rock band from Davenport, Iowa. Recently we have reached a level of recognition that has encouraged us to share our music on a level way beyond the local area. Our journey began with the making of this self titled EP which was released earlier this year. The record is a strong, yet delicate blend of our talents and abilities, and has found its way into the hearts and minds of many fans. The band consists of Burnell Eckardt, Nate Hoffman, and Andrew Drayton. Burnell fronts the band with his enthralling voice, and heavy guitar playing. Nate's versatile drumming technique and counter harmonies provide the backbone to the band. Andrew serves the music with his smooth and haunting bass lines. The power trio puts on deeply moving and entertainingly live shows. "August Zimbal" the bands self titled debut EP has renewed an honest cult following as well as appreciation from fellow musicians. With the release of this CD we announce our professional debut. We are now searching for a record label that best suits us. We have a lot of material in our repertoire and are looking forward to recording an album with a label behind it. Currently we are in the process of booking shows throughout 2008 to promote our sound. However we would really to go on tour. Once upon a time, a little speckled rock eventually fell from the top of the universe, and through a thin layer of galvanized top parts before the end of this digital juicebox. Formed after the disaster, three became two, then two became three. Thankfully it's not in the cards for the tower. Sounds grow and now the noise is underfoot and above our sense of reality...still to come...still dark...scream...

But, really- will do on my lunch break tomorrow, providing I actually take a break and don't work while I eat- I'm so dedicated! LOL

Yeah, you know how I have the random compulsion to always play tambourine for my friends' bands... you are just lucky you don't have one and I don't carry one with me anymore. Haha.

Just between us, OTF sounds WAY better with my tambourine stylings!

Glad the show went well. I am serious, I'll come see you boys again soon.
