Zebuel is a California based music producer and guitarist. Born in Memphis, TN and raised on the banks of the Mississippi, Zeb spent his summers working in Memphis blues clubs before he eventually landed in the San Francisco Bay Area. There he fell for the local bass music scene and began producing his own tracks. It’s the mixture of these two loves - one thumping and electric and modern, the other sun-baked and greasy and vintage - that defines Zeb’s music. At home he is as quick to throw on a Muddy Waters record as he is a classic Pete Rock track, as inclined to bop his head to southern hip-hop as is he is west coast jazz. Zeb’s music stylistically reflects his homegrown hybrid of funk, soul, reggae, and bass-heavy beats. The sound is Memphis meets California, a sort of space age blues, like if B.B. King and Three Six Mafia flew to Jamaica to record a movie soundtrack in 1975. Or if the Mothership came to Muscle Shoals and started a party. Zebuel is the ring leader of The Bay Area based DJ / Live Fusion powerhouse Smoked Out Soul and has recently launched a new psychedelic roots rock project called Sunstax, evoking moods of Jamaican sunsets and mezcal & mushroom infused desert journeys. Zeb has performed at Bonaroo, Redrocks Amphitheater, Outside Lands, High Sierra Music Festival, the X-Games, Sierra Nevada World Music Festival, MTV Tellus Festival Canada, StillDream, Lightning In a Bottle, The Bounce Festival, Symbiosis and Joshua Tree Music Festival.
