    Say ZuZu is an Americana rock band from New Hampshire. Originally formed in 1991, Say ZuZu recorded and released nine full-length albums before disbanding in 2003 and reuniting in 2019. The band’s first release on Strolling Bones Records is Here Again: A Retrospective (1994-2002) and includes highlights from the group’s five studio albums recorded during its touring heyday. A new studio record from the band is scheduled for release in 2023 on Strolling Bones Records.

    “For those who haven't met our music before, these are highlights from five records released between 1994-2002. The songs focus on the large internal lives of people in small mill towns like ours. This record also chronicles a decade of growth from a fiercely independent, self-produced New Hampshire band that flew under the radar during the heyday of the 1990s alt-country movement. The title of the record, Here Again, is inspired by a song from our 1994 self-titled record. We've always sought to write songs that hold up, personal songs that are durable and can stand on their own in a variety of arrangements. "Here Again" is one of those songs. It's also a fitting title for a record that's an opening salvo from a recently reunited band with its first new studio record forthcoming in 2023.”

about

"This was my attempt to capture that joy and freedom you feel when you’re in your mid-twenties, on your first solo road trip, the summer weather is perfect, the window is down and the radio keeps playing your favorite songs. You think “Do I really have to stop when I get there, or should I just keep going and see how far the road goes?” Not a new idea in song form, but an authentic story of one such experience." - Jon Nolan

lyrics

Driving down to Pennsylvania
As a favor to a friend of mine
Seems like a lonely proposition
But I’ve got time
I spot a traveling fair off the highway ramp
Tucked in the wood all spinning lights
And it sure smells good, it sure smells like joy to me

I put a coin and a bill on the counter top
But the waitress – she’s gone home
Late shift changing and my coffee stops
That’s okay it’s a little late to be moving on
I curl my jacket up underneath my head
I’ll get to dreaming just as soon as my head rests
And it sure feels good, it sure feels like joy to me

I flash my lights at a trucker come on by
Pulled into my lane and flashed his own reply
The soil don’t get red as the setting sun
‘Til you get down by the Mississippi way
Going to Pennsylvania
And it feels like joy to me
