"Secret of the Easy Yoke"
Written by David Bazan
Foreword: Pedro the Lion was formed by David Bazan in 1995. While many artists
have accompanied Bazan, both on tours and recorded works, he
formidably remained the solitary creator over Pedro the Lion's eleven year
career. Today, after four LP's and numerous EP and 7" releases,
Bazan continues to tour, playing many of the songs from his past as well as a
selection of new material.
