The band is currently adding the finishing touches to their debut album with producer James Iha (Smashing Pumpkins, A Perfect Circle) which features Jahphet Landis of TV On The Radio on drums. They have announced a month long Monday night residency at LA’s Silverlake venue The Satellite. The band will perform every Monday night in August. All live dates below.

“A synth-laced, trench-coat-cinematically-billowing-as-you-run-around-the-city-streets kind indie pop. But isn’t that the sweet spot? The rub between zippy melodies and lyrics that chip away at life’s melancholic little moments.” – Noisey

“..upon hearing the pop-tinged tracks, you begin to make sense of James and Trullie’s shared knack for lyricism and songwriting.” – NYLON

..”Feral, unrelenting rock music with a hardcore glean in its eye, there’s a hint of pop in those synths which helps the medicine go down.” – Clash Magazine (UK)

Zipper Club is at its core a union of like-minded musicians who share a musical story
and, through their respective former bands, have each navigated the rocky waters of the
music industry. The result is a blissful head rush of a band now coming to the fore, armed with buzzing guitars, spacey synths and magnetic melodies via first single, “Going The Distance.” “It’s music that’s not trying to be something it’s not,” Trullie says of the band’s addictive, brain-lodging sound on its forthcoming debut album, produced by James Iha.

“Going The Distance” is in many ways a perfect encapsulation of the no-holds- barred
attitude of Zipper Club. “It was very appropriate for me, reflective of a road to nowhere I
was on at the time, and I wrote it as a coping mechanism,” he says of a song he describes as “My attitude at the time was ‘I’m going to do whatever I want. I’m going to wake up at 2 and no one can stop me.” He laughs. “It’s actually kind of the most punk song on the album.”
