Zomes is the solo project of Asa Osborne, who is best known for his work with Lungfish and its subgroup, Pupils, as well as being one half of the duo Higgs/Osborne with Lungfish's Daniel Higgs. The Zomes project is distinct from virtually everything that Osborne did before in that he plays all the instruments himself, relies heavily on modally based harmony, and records with a very deliberate lo-fi aesthetic. The first Zomes date was a critically acclaimed, self-titled offering issued in 2008 on Holy Mountain. It was followed in 2011 with the even more adventurous Earth Grid on the Thrill Jockey imprint. ~ Thom Jurek
