BIO
Rabbit Fist is:Harold 'Bummy' Lehman : Voice, Guitar, Bass, Electronics
Virginia 'Vajaja' Meza : Drums
Erika 'Kiki' Payán Zanetti : Keyboards
Some time after the turn of the century, multi instrumentalist Harold "Bummy" Lehman recorded an album under the name Rabbit Fist. Shortly thereafter a band was formed. After some initial rotation the line up solidified to Drummer Vajaja (Virginia Meza) and Keyboardist E.P.Z.
Vajaja (Virginia Meza) is a veteran of several Austin bands including Candi & the Cavities, The Devil Bat, UnHung Heroes, JackieOno, Bandinis, Soul People, SlendorKünt, Vibralux and some other ones that never made it out of the garage. She claims to have put the lime in the coconut way before it was fasionable to do so and has a fear of being tazed.
E.P.Z (Erika Payán Zanetti) comes from a musical family, in which her maternal grandmother is a classical pianist, her paternal grandfather a jazz pianist, and her parents are music enthusiasts with vast Latin-genre record collections. She dabbled for years with performance piano and keyboard, from performing classical pieces in recital halls to making loud noise in neighborhood garages.
