Review

For Shaking Off the Weirdness, The Zen Tricksters' third CD, the band has explored their penchant for acoustic music. The album features 10 original songs including new titles such as High Horse and Sleepwalking, plus staples of their live shows, Light of Life and The One, and boasts a colorful roster of special guests including former Trickster and current member of The Other Ones and Phil Lesh & Friends, Rob Barraco, Buddy Cage (New Riders of the Purple Sage), and Jason Crosby (former ZT, now with Susan Tedeschi and Oteil & the Peacemakers). Formed 24 years ago, the Tricksters are a New York based national touring band who enjoy playing a heavily mixed bag of tunes including rock, psychedelia, blues, bluegrass, jazz, and folk, but somehow meld it all into a sound that is distinctly their own. Founder and lead guitarist Jeff Mattson played three shows in the Fall of 1999 with Phil Lesh & Friends and co-wrote featured track, Leave Me Out of This on Phil & Friends recent Sony CD, There and Back Again.
