Zaphica was formed in Santa Fe, New Mexico in early 2022. Their first year as a band saw them recording and releasing their debut EP, "Inquisition". Inquisition featured compositions by members Reid Meuth and Brody Silver. Since then, the group recorded and released their debut album "Directions", which features all original material, again written by Meuth and Silver. In addition to recording, the band has found considerable success as live performers, as seen with their sold-out shows at Teatro Paraguas in November 2023 and Paradiso in January 2024.
