About Sunken Melody: Sunken Melody is the ambient project from seasoned musician Steve Leaf, known for his collaborative spirit and work with bands like The Ex Pats, Public Access, and The Crane Wives. Blending drum machines, synthesizers, vocals, and guitar, Sunken Melody weaves together dreamy, minimalist beats and melodies, perfect for relaxation, introspection, and to assuage the frequent existential quandary.
About Joe Zook: Joe Zook is a multidisciplinary artist, filmmaker, and radio host. He’s the director of the documentary “Islanders”, co-host of the podcast “The Long Road Home Alone”, and the Production Manager at GRTV. He’s also a hopeless analog media enthusiast, collector of rare laserdiscs, hoarder of videocassettes, and student of the human condition.
