Mister Lies

Mister Lies is the product of dorm-room insomnia, the development of a family of friends in a city of strangers under altered states and the feeling of homesickness for places where one only feels homesick. It is also the operational alias for a 20-year-old producer, multi-instrumentalist and feral child who was raised by wolves in the forests of a Connecticut suburb. Somewhere down the road, those winds whisked him away and dropped him off in Chicago. In the harshest parts of winter in the Windy City; equipped with a laptop, several controllers and whatever instruments were lying around his congested dorm-room; he released his first EP anonymously before eventually revealing his identity as Nick Zanca. After many months away, Zanca revisited his New England roots with a collection of Rudyard Kipling’s written work and a carload of microphones, synthesizers and samplers and camped out at a cabin on a lake in Vermont. Zanca’s debut full-length MOWGLI, out on Lefse, is the eight-track result of that meditation and soul-searching – an aggressive hunt for self-awareness and feral youth.
