2012 is proving to be a massive year of touring for Zammuto. The acclaimed quartet, fronted by Nick Zammuto (formerly of avant-folk duo The Books), today announce a string of dates supporting indie-pop megastar Gotye, the Belgian-Australian crooner responsible for perhaps the biggest breakout of the year, “Somebody That I Used to Know“. The announcement arrives hot on the heels of the recently announced second leg of their US tour with post-rock legends Explosions in the Sky and a highly coveted spot on the bill of NC’s Hopscotch Music Festival in continued support of their self-titled debut album on Temporary Residence Limited. Having showcased a seemingly bottomless reservoir of creativity and virtuosic execution at their live dates so far (including multiple sold out headlining shows in New York), the band are slowly building a case for being an indispensible fixture at the forefront of underground music. Tour dates are listed below.

Nick Zammuto has been making music since 1999. Since 2001 he has been composing music with the band “the Books”. This year, he has started working on a new project called “Zammuto”… and he will be releasing a self titled album on April 3rd 2012 on Temporary Residence Limited. He lives in a little mountain town called Readsboro, VT with his wife and his three sons, which is where he creates all of his music in his home studio… and with the help of Sean Dixon on drums, Gene Back (multi-intrumentalist), and Mikey Zammuto on bass… he has created a rockin’ new band!
