What began as an exploration of loss, would transform into a celebration of life, friendship, and the enduring spirit of a 5.6 pound Papillon named Beignet, a tiny pup who became Dillon’s constant tour companion, by his side for thousands of miles. The compositions were born from the grief of losing friends and influences. In a pivot to find light in the dark, Dillon decided to metaphorically transform those humans into animals, reimagining the LP as a joyful trip to the zoo with his dog. Highlights include the ghostly yet elegant “Honey The Peregrine,” a stately tribute to the late Ellis Marsalis entitled “Ellis the Penguin,” and “Puma \u0026amp; The Spider Monkey,” an analog synth Cumbia. It winds through psychedelia like “Gorilla \u0026amp; Zebra Birthday Party,” the electro-jungle boogie-funk of “Gibby Plays Possum” and closes with the mournful elegy “Beignet Greets the Owl. Mike Dillon is a longtime collaborator of artists like Les Claypool and Rickie Lee Jones. This latest effort completes a loose trilogy of solo instrumental releases following Functioning Broke (2016) and Rosewood (2020).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bt-track-row\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bt-track-num\"\u003e1 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bt-track-name\"\u003eHoney the Peregrine\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bt-track-row\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bt-track-num\"\u003e2 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bt-track-name\"\u003eEllis the Penguin\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bt-track-row\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bt-track-num\"\u003e3 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bt-track-name\"\u003eSkippy the Giraffe\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bt-track-row\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bt-track-num\"\u003e4 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bt-track-name\"\u003eHollise the Meerkat\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bt-track-row\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bt-track-num\"\u003e5 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bt-track-name\"\u003eGorilla and Zebra Party\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bt-track-row\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bt-track-num\"\u003e6 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bt-track-name\"\u003ePuma and The Spider Monkey\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bt-track-row\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bt-track-num\"\u003e7 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bt-track-name\"\u003eRonald the Rhino\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bt-track-row\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bt-track-num\"\u003e8 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bt-track-name\"\u003eGibby Plays Possum\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bt-track-row\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bt-track-num\"\u003e9 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bt-track-name\"\u003eBeignet and the White Peacock Tea Party\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bt-track-row\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bt-track-num\"\u003e10 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bt-track-name\"\u003eLola the Orangutan\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bt-track-row\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bt-track-num\"\u003e11 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bt-track-name\"\u003eBeignet Greets the Owl\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bt-track-row\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"bt-track-name\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUPC: \u003cstrong\u003e020286250944\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"RED (Sony)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48548825759942,"sku":"020286250944","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1377\/6983\/files\/4537454-3698566.jpg?v=1793204843","url":"https:\/\/www.shugarecords.com\/products\/mike-dillon-mike-beignet-go-to-the-zoo-new-lp-record-2026-royal-potato-red-vinyl-instrumental-rock-jazz","provider":"Shuga Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
