Hi, Jon here.
“Zhongyu” is the name I use for my music in the general area of progressive rock, though in my case, I have a very broad definition of what that means. Various posts on this site delve into influences if you’re interested.
The first album, Zhongyu Is Chinese for Finally, was released on Moonjune Records in 2016, and the second, Super Z Attack Team, is came out on October 1, 2025 on Right Brain Records.
As for the name… I wanted something to reflect the Chinese influence, as I was using the guzheng in my music, and I hit upon the Chinese word 终于 (Zhōngyú) which means “finally.” After all these years, I finally have a band to play the music in my head.
