The Zanzibar track is titled "Quartermass," featuring Sarah Alexander on vocals, dulcimer and bells, and somebody has described it as kind of like Christmas eve at Stonehenge.

Zanzibar has also been asked to participate in Austin’s annual First Night civic New Year’s Eve celebration. Austin experimental arts organization Church of the Friendly ghost has asked the band to perform on the COFG stage on Ladybird Lake (formerly Town Lake) in the eye of the New Year’s Eve storm.
