The next album PANK was warmly welcomed by critics and was nominated for best progressive rock album by the "grass roots Grammys" organization Just Plain Folks in 2009. The first album released in 2007 - LUMINIFEROUS ETHER - gained some recognition with the track "TOWER OF TUNA" and their interpretation of the "TARKUS" suite by ELP. Soon after, the band's name was changed to ZIP TANG and the decision was made to start writing original material. With no luck finding a keyboard player, Fred brought in his orchestral mate from the College Of DuPage big jazz band - Marcus PADGETT - who played saxophone and a little keyboards. The search began for a drummer and keyboard player, and Fred FALLER's audition locked in the core trio of the band then known as RPM. The idea was to start a fun little project covering some of their favourite artists' music - STEELY DAN, JEFF BECK, TRAFFIC, YES, KING CRIMSON, etc. Zip Tang began as a conversation between Perry MERRITT and Rick WOLFE at a local jam session in a suburb of Chicago, IL.
