Artist History Zeno was formed under the collective efforts of the above individuals on a day devoid of "listenable" music. Quickly growing repulsed at the thought of having the likes of N'Sync, Backstreet Boys and 98 Degrees forced down their combined esophaguses yet again, the foursome decided to take action. They would gather their musical resources whenever possible to create their quirky blend of "anti-pop". Zeno's goal lies somewhere between mocking the status quo of today's lackluster music "scene" and injecting new ideas into it's loins.All members of ill-fated "bands", these boys are no strangers to music. Kazuhiro "Tazz" Itoh has studied every possible musical form from percussion to composition to whistle blowing (!) at the illustrious University of Miami. Edwin studies jazz and classical guitar fervently. John has been perfecting his bass-ic dexterity and has had the benefit of studying under the direction of bass greats Nicky Orta and Matt Bonnelli (Bee-Gees). And last but not least, Kent persists in uncovering delicious secrets hidden within the most musical art of all - English Literature!Mike is new...give him time
