INTRODUCTION
Zavanna was established in 2006 in Las Pinas, Manila, Philippines, when Carl visited Neal’s studio to see Edward, who was then serving as the sound engineer. During this visit, Carl shared some of his demo recordings, which left a strong impression on Neal. He recognized Carl's exceptional songwriting skills and the foundational arrangement of the three tracks he had heard, prompting him to express a desire to collaborate and maximize the potential of their music. Within a few days, Zavanna was formed, consisting of the following members:

 

The recording process, which spanned approximately one year, was marked by rising tensions at Neal's studio. Consequently, we made the decision to halt the recording and pursue our individual paths, with the understanding that we would revisit the project after each of us had the opportunity to explore our personal dreams and aspirations within the music industry. Unfortunately, it took nearly 16 years for Neal, Edward, and Carl to finally listen to the tracks, at which point they recognized the value of remixing and mastering them. During this period, we began to reconnect, ultimately leading to the revival of Zavanna. We invite you to join us on this musical journey.
