Steve Zaat makes available a song raising awareness of the Persecution of Bahá’ís in Iran
“Ponder This Awhile” brings back the protest song in a bid to draw attention to the systematic persecution of the Bahá'í Community in the “Cradle of the Faith”, Iran. While the persecution has been going on since the middle 1800s the recent withholding of liberties and arrests seems so very out of step with the generally prevailing notion that all the world’s inhabitants have inherent rights and freedoms.

Zany Lane
Steve Zaat and Erica Lane have teamed up to form the duo Zany Lane to create and perform music for children. Here’s the new website, zanylane.com and info on their success.

That’s Me
In 2008 Saint John musician Steve Zaat wrote a song to console the hearts of two parents who had lost their young son to cancer. Written for Thomas, “That’s Me” visualizes a world seen through his eyes as he describes his release from this world and his enduring love for those who miss him. The song then inspired a beautiful book illustrated with jewel-toned oil paintings created by Sackville artist Sue Rose.
The cd of the song and the book that have been produced are dedicated to Thomas and his siblings. A third of the proceeds from the sale of the packaged book and cd will go to the Canadian Cancer Society.
