Biography The Books
The Books are a band founded by and consisting of American Nick Zammuto
and Dutchman Paul de Jong in New York City in 2000. Their music is a mix of
aleatoric, electronica, folk, and acoustic music (de Jong is a cellist and
Zammuto plays acoustic guitar and electric bass), incorporating samples of
sounds, speech and music. They have released three albums, all on the
German (Cologne) label Tomlab. They are currently recording and residing in
North Adams, Massachusetts, near Zammuto's alma mater, Williams College.
Their 2006 live shows consisted primarily of live acoustic performance
(cello, guitar and vocals), played with prerecorded electronics and
synchronized video.
Their music ("Tokyo" from The Lemon of Pink) was featured in the

featured in a 2007 Hummer H3
