Keyboard and electric-violin legend Eddie Jobson announces a January 6 release date for the new UKZ band's debut EP entitled Radiation. The band is also planning a debut concert in late January in New York City.

A video for the title track "Radiation" will be released this month to ukzband.com Zealots Lounge members. The Zealots Lounge will be a place where members can get a look behind the scenes and have advance access to UKZ music, video and concert tickets.

Returning from a self-imposed 27-year retirement from band and touring activity, Jobson set out to find the same caliber of next-generation musicians for the new UKZ project that would equal or surpass the talents of his previous colleagues and collaborators -- an impressive list that includes Frank Zappa, Robert Fripp, Bill Bruford, Phil Collins, John Entwistle, Ian Anderson, Simon Phillips, Terry Bozzio, Allan Holdsworth, and Tony Levin.



Jobson -- who was born and raised in the Durham area of England -- has hand-selected a truly international dream-band of virtuosos from around the world:

Aaron Lippert -- a citizen of Belgium, but born and raised in New York -- the former lead singer and songwriter for Columbia recording artists Expanding Man.

Trey Gunn -- a Texas native, currently residing in Seattle - a ten-year veteran of King Crimson and the leading exponent of the Warr 10-string touch guitar.

Alex Machacek -- from Vienna, Austria -- an award-winning guitar prodigy and composer.

Marco Minnemann -- from Hannover, Germany -- a drumming phenomenon of unparalleled virtuosity.
