"Area musical duo ready to catch fire with CD release"

"Because, let's face it, we're not really 'American Idol' material," he said. "But it would be nice to market the music and make a living at it."

That plan may not be as lofty as it sounds, in fact. Two Men And A Campfire boasts a healthy schedule of shows throughout Ohio and -- particularly at its self-proclaimed "home base" at Jammin' Java in Parma -- has begun to build a fan base as unique as the band itself. "I sometimes joke from stage that we thought about calling it 'Two Men And A Campfire Looking For Two Women with A Tent'," Northfield Village resident Zinn said. "But we thought 'twomenandacampfirelookingfortwowomenwithatent.com' would be kind of difficult."

Albeit memorable. Which, in the end, the group's music takes care of quite admirably on its own.

The duo has dubbed its mix of Zinn's inadvertently dark, eerie folk and Godbey's more traditional and quirkily humorous "Americoustic" music -- not quite rootsy enough to be Americana, but far from a full-on rock approach. - Sun News Cleveland.Com
