Z ROCK is a comedy series featured on the Independent Film Channel that follows three friends leading a double life! By day, they are a kid’s party band called “The Z Brothers” and by night, they are a hard-partying rock band known as ZO2. Z ROCK, an internet based TV Show, loosely centers around the real lives and experiences of the band members of Z02 featuring brothers Paulie Z (lead singer/guitarist) and David Z (bassist/vocals) along with their long life friend, Joey Cassata (drummer). Episodes of Z ROCK provide the viewer with a backstage pass to the band's struggle to become rock royalty while coping with the realities of everyday life, such as accepting gigs they'd rather turn down, dealing with an emotional club owner and manager, surviving jail, handling groupies while most importantly, avoiding their angry husbands! The show featured cameos and guest appearances by comedic icon Joan Rivers, Radio Producer Gary Dell'Abate (Howard Stern Show), John Popper (Blues Traveler), Daryl Hall (Hall & Oates), Dave Navarro (Jane's Addiction) and Mini Kiss as well as the staples of the music scene including: Crash Mansion, Webster Hall & Southpaw, to name a few. So what do we want to do? We want to Bring Back Z Rock! The show aired at a time when internet streaming of TV shows was not yet the norm. The only way to see Z ROCK at the time was to either have IFC or purchase it on iTunes. It is unfortunate that the show was canceled after 2 seasons. It is currently available on NetFlix and Amazon. With the 2-years that it has been off the air, the fans still want the show to make a comeback. We are using the power of the internet to call forth all Z Rock fans to make this happen! It's our belief that if we can expose Z Rock to the masses, the show will have its Second Life! To help support the show and bring it back, visit www.facebook.com/bringbackzrock

Jessica Gilbert is far from your average woman as she has lived a life that many people do not get to experience. She has lived in three countries (USA - Houston, TX; Canada - Montreal, QC and Spain - Marbella) as well as has done extensive traveling throughout much of North America and Europe.
Born in Montreal, raised in Houston with her childhood years spent there and her teen years spent in Spain, plus all the traveling she has done, Jessica has been exposed to a broad range of experiences so far in life. Jessica attended Concordia University in Montreal where she studied Art, earning a BFA Degree in Studio Art with an emphasis on painting and drawing. Later, she completed an intensive graphic design program through the Continuing Education Department. Prior to Jessica’s move back to Spain in August 2009, where she currently resides, she had been living in Canada for fourteen years. Whilst living in Canada, she had various administrative and graphic design work experiences. Late in 2008, the idea for her online Talent Spotlight Magazine (TSM) started to germinate and was officially launched in November 2010. Talent Spotlight Magazine came into existence as a result of her desire to participate in the creative process of talent. Having always been drawn to artists - their work and lives - being able to interview them, getting close and personal so to speak - is truly a thrill. It is also very fulfilling for her to offer artists a creative venue to promote their talent. Creating a vehicle for herself to reach for her goals has been quite a challenge and intimately satisfying. Jessica is very fortunate to have Michelle Jackson working with her on it. Jessica is also featured in Betty Dravis’ and Chase Von’s Dream Reachers ll book that is available for purchase at Amazon and other online bookstores.

Little Mikey is an infamously talented musician who writes hilarious and creative song parodies that are regularly played on The Howard Stern Show. Since he started listening in 1996, he’s been an avid supporter and fan of the show. Little Mikey’s first song parody was part of a Baba Booey Contest. He received great attention and admiration from his initial song parodies which focused on Baba Booey. However, it was when he branched off and started writing about Robin Quivers that he really ‘hit the jackpot,’ so to speak where his songs are played practically daily. When he is not composing song parodies for The Howard Stern Show, Little Mikey writes original music, which has been featured on Red Peters Comedy Hour on Sirius-XM Howard 101. His original music is available on iTunes under Lil Mikey Roohan with his album titled Louder and Prouder.

Joe Mooski is the creator of the Stern Facebook Superfans and the Stern Superfans website. Joe started listening to The Howard Stern Show in 1982 when he was at WNBC. Since there was no place for the Howard Stern fans to connect and share their experiences with each other, without all of the ‘hate’ that was evident on other sites, Joe created the Stern Facebook Superfans on January 17th, 2010 with solely four people. Within less than 2-years, Stern Facebook Superfans had such an overwhelmingly positive impact on the Howard Stern Fans, that the page has now over 8,000 fans! By creating such a positive vibe and presence for Howard Stern Fans, Joe recently took it to another level and developed the Stern Superfans Website, which is a new blog site for ‘All Things Howard’ to continue spreading the word to the Howard Stern Superfans of the world! Stern Facebook Superfans has not only been recognized by all the Howard Sterns Fans, but has been brought to the attention of The Howard Stern Show where Joe has been interviewed by The Howard 100 News Team as well as been discussed on The Howard Stern Show.

Has anyone ever considered the concept of a social media experiment where a person himself becomes the guinea pig? Intriguing and captivating…absolutely! But Keith Fenimore is taking a slightly different approach and utilizing a more creative way to make his unfamiliar face the perfect blank slate for his experiment. An experiment where he aims to become ‘The Most Recognizable Person in America.” Keith attended Old Dominion University and received a Bachelor of Science in Marketing. He is the senior producer for Howard Stern TV and has created various TV reality shows for network and production companies such as A&E, TV Guide Channel, Fox Reality, VH-1 and E! Despite his background in production, Keith is his very own next production! But what is simply fascinating and appealing about Keith Fenimore is how he is enthralled, enamored and perplexed by what is the nature of a celebrity, how is a buzz created and how is the complexity/simplicity of modern day communication exchange used? The allure of what he is doing is that his social media experiment is not about him being for or against anything nor is he selling, promoting or marketing a product. So then why is he doing this? He doesn’t care if he is liked or develops a fan base, but is solely doing this because nothing like it has been done before and he wants to see if it can be done. He is not looking for recognition for recognition sake, but it is simply the end result of this experiment's success. It’s also a phenomenon to see if he can manipulate the system by being transparent, but this is not your typical ‘malingerer’ who seeks secondary gain since it’s not about capitalizing on scandal, tragedy or money. Rather his social media experiment it is about wisdom, irony and fun! With enough exposure, he successfully can become the next phenomenon! It is out of his hands and up to the masses. What will they do with it?
