The Zincs are a 4-piece band based in Chicago, despite being originally from London. The Zincs were set up by English singer/songwriter James Elkington in 2000 to play the songs that had been cramping up his 4-track since his move to Chicago the year before. His first album, Moth and Marriage, was released by the Ohio Gold label in 2001 and was performed by Elkington alone, but a band was formed to play the subsequent shows and the Zincs proper was born.
