Lost and Found Record Release Party - Buzz Zeemer

Last week on Friday, March 29—two concerts in one day from a band that I found out about in 2004. When I shared my “Buzz Zeemer reunion” meme last year, I did receive a couple of “yeah, it’ll never happen”-type comments. So, I never thought I’d get to witness them live in my lifetime, but dreams do manifest themselves in the most unusual ways! 🤩 

The WXPN Free at Noon was a solid performance, but I could never have imagined the transcendental event that would transpire later that evening. What Frank Brown, Tommy Conwell, Dave McElroy and Ken Buono, brought to us onstage that night didn’t happen by magic—they must have practiced for a long time and been really thoughtful about their performance to give us the kind of quality show they knew we would be expecting from them. Buzz Zeemer was the best band in America in their prime and they truly lived up to it! 🎸🎶 

I went through a universe of emotions with each song as it was playing and thinking about the years I’ve spent enjoying them: Don’t Hang Up, This Town, Porch, Sometimes, Lost and Found, Crush, Don’t Pull Away, These Things, Shelly Don’t Mind—so many songs! 🥰 

How awesome was it to hear the cheers of “one more song”—the audience was so loud! And seeing the younger kids in the audience flashing “heart hands” after “Through It All” in the encore—amazing! 

Life can make us see our past in rosy shades and attempts to recreate moments may only muddy our memories. But the music experience with Buzz Zeemer in 2024 has left a positive impact on me--getting to meet new friends, hearing their stories and realizing how much the music means to any community willing to support their artists. 

Yes. Let’s do this again next year.

Music Dreams Do Come True!

 And they said this day would never come! Tickets go on sale today for Buzz Zeemer at Ardmore Music Hall with The Tisburys. Tickets can be purchased here.

Lost and Found | Buzz Zeemer: On Main Street Music Records

It’s *officially* Buzz Zeemer summer!

LOST AND FOUND out on Friday, Sept. 8--get your pre-order on BandCamp!

From Main Street Music:
We are so excited to announce a debut release on Main Street Music Records: Lost and Found by BUZZ ZEEMER out September 8th. Almost 30 years in the making, this is a very personal release for Pat [Feeney], the owner of Main Street Music, who managed Buzz Zeemer during their run. Curated from recordings done with Adam Lasus between 1993 and 1997, Lost and Found is more than a collection of loose recordings; it’s truly a standalone record that tells the story of a band underrated during their time that sounds both classic and modern. If you’re a fan of 90s power pop and classic songwriting, Lost and Found is for you. Pre-orders for black and red translucent vinyl are available now on Bandcamp and in-store. First single “C’mon If You Can” will hit streaming this Saturday, June 24, the same day as the sold out Flight of Mavis reunion show at 118 North. More to come soon!
