History

Fold Zandura was formed in December 1995 after the break up of Jyro and Jerome's previous band Mortal. They hired drummer Frank Lenz and self-released their eponymous debut. In 1997 they released two albums the first aptly titled Return which featured 5 re-recorded songs from their debut and two new songs and an instrumental. Later that year they released their major label debut Ultraforever on BEC Recordings. This time the pattern was reversed and contained 14 new songs and 2 songs from Fold Zandura. They made a music video for Deep Surround and also recorded two non album tracks for two BEC compliations. Moms Like Us Too Vol. 1 featured Serena and Happy Christmas featured Asia Minor. Sometime after Frank Lenz left the band in order to be closer to his family although he would continue to play at concerts close to home. A music video (also video clip, promo) is a short film meant to present a visual representation of a popular music song. ... Anatolia (Greek: ανατολη anatole, rising of the sun or East; compare Orient and Levant, by popular etymology Turkish Anadolu to ana mother and dolu filled), also called by the Latin name of Asia Minor, is a region of Southwest Asia which corresponds today to the Asian portion of Turkey. ...


In 1999 they independently released their final album, a seven song EP called King Planet. The band members were listed simply as Jyro and Jerome although Jyro's wife Carla does vocals on one track.


In 2000 Jerome Fontamillas joined Switchfoot as a session musician and later joined them full time. In early 2002 Jyro released Juggernautz a side project without Jerome on Metro One Music. Jyro Xhan is currently with Crystal Lewis and various other bands as producer, engineer, guitar and keyboard player.
