Start & Begin, includes the single Start & Begin (6/9), plus elements from a wide variety of musical genres. From jazzy ballad lint of Without My Girl to the racous grunt of Cavalier Blues to the honesty of Deptford Broadway, this 10 track album has a distinctly unique sound.

Zen's debut single wears its influences very firmly on its sleeve while still managing to sound highly fresh and contemporary. Like all the best musicians who pay homage to the work of previous artists, Zen don't simply replicate the sound of their influences they build and expand upon them. What they've produced is a heady blend of folk, punk and psychedelia for a 21st century audience. - Jaspre Bark
