ZEPHYR

A VOLCANO OF DREAMS

... a life slowly fading
has erupted and blown up the night
and living or not
I must go on sailing
and try to escape from the light...

‘Sail On’ (Tommy Bolin/Candy Givens)

There is A LOT happening – exciting rare material, Candy's induction into the Iowa Rock n' Roll Music Association Hall of Fame 2026... WATCH THIS SPACE

‍

Iowa Rock n' Roll Music Association has decided to induct Zephyr's charismatic lead singer, harmonica player, and composer Candy Givens into their Hall of Fame with the 2026 class of inductees where she will join former band mates Tommy Bolin and Bob Berge. Candy was the first female front person in a successful genuine hard rock band. Thanks to terrible management, Zephyr never achieved wide commercial success, but their unique blend of rock, blues, jazz, and country continues to inspire new listeners and they are more popular today than they were 55 years ago.
