Michael Zapruder is a San Francisco-based indie songwriter whose discography includes New Ways of Letting Go (2006, Howells Transmitter), This is a Beautiful Town (2002, Explorable Oriole) and 52 Songs (1999, 52 Songs), a web project for which Zapruder wrote, recorded and posted a song each week for a calendar year. Michael Zapruder's Rain of Frogs, Zapruder's newest vehicle, is a collection of Bay Area musicians including Nate Query from the Decemberists, Jonathan Segal from Camper Van Beethoven, Scott Pinkmountain from P.A.F., Scott Solter, and Jon Bernson from Ray's Vast Basement. The music most closely resembles orchestral folk or chamber pop, with dramatic and creative string and horn arrangements. Even so, the focus remains on Zapruder's consistently luminous songwriting, which often centers on vignettes and scenarios of peculiar and poignant drama. In the Fall of 2006, Zapruder will be reviving the experimental streak in his writing, spearheading a songwriting project in collaboration with the nearly one hundred poets on Wave Books' Poetry Bus. The results of this project will be released on a series of 7" singles in 2007. Read more on Last.fm.
