John Zorn is a highly influential and innovative composer, saxophonist, and multi-instrumentalist. With a career spanning over four decades, he has explored various genres including jazz, rock, classical, and avant-garde. Known for his unique approach to music composition and improvisation, Zorn has released numerous albums as both a solo artist and with his bands such as Naked City and Masada. His eclectic style blends elements of free jazz, punk rock, noise music, and world music to create captivating and boundary-pushing soundscapes.

Zorn's work has garnered critical acclaim worldwide and he has been recognized with prestigious awards including the MacArthur Fellowship "Genius Grant" in 2006. He is also the founder of the independent record label Tzadik which focuses on releasing avant-garde music from various artists across different genres.

Whether performing live or composing for film soundtracks or theater productions, John Zorn continues to push the boundaries of musical expression. His fearless experimentation combined with his technical prowess makes him an enduring figure in contemporary music.

Electric Masada combines the raw power and manic speed of Naked City, the improvisational edge of Cobra and the spiritual lyricism of the Masada songbook. Their second release captures them at the end of a long European tour, at the very peak of their powers. Tight as a drum and as hot as a blow torch, these two incredible live performances will leave you breathless. Featuring a level of musical communication, excitement, versatility and complexity very few bands have been able to attain, this is Zorn at his very best. Astonishing group conductions, searing solos and crazed insanity from one of the most amazing bands Zorn has ever had.
