About

ZEST HOPE SUCCESSES IS A DREAMY COLOURFUL EXPLOSION OF GUITARS & CATCHY MELODIES. IMAGINE A KALEIDOSCOPE OF BANDS SUCH AS FLAMING LIPS, PAVEMENT, PIXIES, DEATH CAB, REM, MERCURY REV, MBV, SUPER FURRIES & YO LA TENGO AND YOU’RE HEADING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.

ZHS BEGAN AS A SOLO PROJECT BY NICK PEERS, (ALSO GUITARIST IN SEA NOISE & SILENT ROCKETS).  LIVE, HE IS VERY LUCKY TO BE AIDED BY THREE VIRTUOSIC MUSICIANS WHO HELP HIM RECREATE THESE COLOURFUL LEFTFIELD POP SONGS.

THE NAME CAME ABOUT WHEN NICK (JUST FOR FUN) VISITED A FORTUNE-TELLER IN A BERLIN MARKET. AS HE WAS LEAVING, THE OLD LADY TOLD HIM THAT SUCCESS WOULD ONLY COME IF HE SOUGHT ZEST & HOPE.

LIFE IS A MANY-SPLENDOURED THING!
