Steve Zaat is a Singer/Songwriter from Saint John New Brunswick. Steve started writing songs in the early 90’s and released an eclectic cassette (remember those) called “Joy and Pain” in 1996.
Following the birth of his children and with hours of exposure to children’s programming Steve found himself writing some catchy and silly songs for his children. With a recording studio at home Steve recorded early versions of many of the songs that would become Zany Lane hits.
In 2005 began work on his CD project “Jumpstart To Eternity” Featuring many of the area’s top players Jumpstart was an ambitious project with eighteen tracks and a spiritually infused vibe. For more info on this and other projects see www.stevezaat.com
Erica Lane hails from Saint John, New Brunswick. Growing up in the small community of Lorneville her parents always encouraged her in music with vocal and piano lessons being a must. Erica’s ease and comfort with public speaking and her passion for interacting and engaging children make her a natural in the children’s entertainment industry. Children respond well to her enthusiastic, fun loving and warm personality.
After spending countless hours attending live children’s shows and performances with her own 2 young sons, Erica saw the need for this type of entertainment in Saint John and realized this would definitely be an adventure she would like to pursue.
Around this same time friend and neighbour, Steve Zaat had been sharing some of his original music with Erica’s preschool students. She was impressed with how receptive the children were to his catchy tunes and lyrics. Thus the plan for providing quality children’s entertainment was hatched. Their first official performance as a duo called Zany Lane was at Seawood School in June 2008. Children and adults alike continue to enjoy Zany Lane's fun, educational, interactive, family oriented show.
