"After the very first ZappaUnion Festival was such a success in Norway in 2012, my friends Erlend and Bjorn suggested that I come back in 2013 with a full band of Zappa alumni. I agreed that it was a great idea and reformed Banned From Utopia, a unique combination of musicians who first began performing in 1994 in a series of concerts to commemorate Frank's life and music. The band performed in various configurations over the next few years, but hasn't been seen for many years until now. WE'RE BACK, and very excited to play this great music for the fans that love it as much as we do." -- Robert Martin

Banned From Utopia features Frank Zappa alumni and Frank Zappa associated members performing a full FRANK ZAPPA performance.
