Description
John Zambetti founder of The Malibooz has taken temporary residence in Dublin as he accompanies his partner Jane Seymour while she is filming the hit series “Harry Wild”
John is using his time here to write and to perform for the first time for an Irish audience along with his band the Malibooz and some very special guests too.
Formed in the "surf mecca" of New York City, The Malibooz proved to be a major attraction on the Eastern seaboard throughout the 1960s.
They released "Goin' To Malibu" in 1965 which led to appearances at The New York State World's Fair and then as part of the first color TV broadcast live from the RCA Pavilion!
They continued to work together and also played on each other's solo efforts.
The Walter Egan Band was signed to Columbia for five albums and then to MCA. The first two albums, "Fundamental Roll" and "Not Shy" were produced by Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks. John was part of these collaborations which included the million selling hit "Magnet & Steel" which was the American Music Awards nominee for Song of the Year in 1978. Twenty years later the still popular song appeared in the Golden Globe and Academy Award winning movie, "Boogie Nights".
In 1981 The Malibooz released their single "Hot Summer Nights" which appeared in the movie "California Girls". The video was filmed around Zambetti's guitar-shaped pool and was one of the first videos aired on MTV!
Since then the band recorded 6 more albums and have had over 30 songs featured in TV shows and movies.
Currently they have 2 songs in the film "21 Miles" produced by Michel Shane (Catch Me If You Can, I Robot)
The Malibooz 2010 album"Queens' English". features a dozen original British Invasion Icon guest artists including; Spencer Davis, The Hollies' Tony Hicks, Chad & Jeremy, Rolling Stones' producer Andrew Loog Oldham and The Quarrymen.
"Queens' English" hit #1 on the CDBaby British Invasion chart and the follow up album "QE 2", was a semi finalist in the 2022 Grammys for "Rock Album of The Year"
