About Zita Swoon

Zita Swoon entered the music scene of Antwerp, Belgium back in 1993 under the name A Beatband with the EP Jintro Travels the Word in a Skirt. The group is typical of the musicscene in Antwerp, with members playing in numerous other groups. Best known member is Stef Kamil Carlens (who at the time was still dEUS' bassplayer as well), but the initial group also includes Aarich Jespers.

The same group releases Everyday I Wear A Greasy Black Feather On My Hat in '95 under the name Moondog Jr., shortly thereafter being legally forced to change their name again, settling on Zita Swoon, which means 'intense desire'. The success of the album is awarded with invitations to the Lowlands, Pinkpop and Torhout festivals. They also appear live on MTV the same year in Most Wanted with Michael Blair.

Their first appearance in the US is at the South by Southwest festival in '98. Zita Swoon has played at numerous locations, from New York to the Belgian Rock Werchter festival, the Holland Festival and also in Germany. They are awarded with the title Cultural Ambassador of Flanders in '99 (after DAAU and dEUS) and their work is supported by the government with 1.5 million Francs.
