Zebra on Tour
Zebra galloped out of New Orleans in early 1975. The trio, consisting of Randy Jackson, Felix Hanemann and Guy Gelso, concocted their moniker from a 1926 Vogue magazine cover and soon won over the South and East Coast. In 1982 Zebra's self-titled debut album went gold and was the fastest selling debut album in Atlantic Records' history thanks to the radio and MTV airplay of "Tell Me What You Want" and "Who's Behind the Door?". Veteran producer Jack Douglas (John Lennon, Aerosmith, Cheap Trick) also helmed the follow-up, "No Tellin' Lies". The songs range from the hard-rocking "Wait Until the Summer's Gone" to the Beatle-esque ballad, "Lullaby". With the release of their third Atlantic album "3.V", Zebra took their career one step farther: the album's credits read "Produced by Randy Jackson and Zebra". Thus, for the very first time, the group gained complete control of its creative output. A collection of the finest songs they have ever written, "3.V" clearly shows Zebra's lasting power and originality. In all, Zebra fans enjoyed a total of five videos aired on MTV and have given the band combined album sales of nearly 2 million worldwide. Zebra emerged from the studio again in 2003 with "ZEBRA IV", on Mayhem Records. This could possibly be the best effort by Zebra to date with powerful cuts which include "Arabian Nights", "Why" and "Waiting To Die". Zebra's live performances often last over two hours and showcase their new material along with all the classic Zebra tunes: "Who's Behind the Door?", "Tell Me What You Want", "Wait Until the Summer's Gone", "Bears", "One More Chance" and other all-time favorites including an occasional Led Zeppelin cover. "ZEBRA THE DVD", released in 2008 captures the band's energy and power on stage. The DVD features live concert footage from both Long Island and the House of Blues in New Orleans in addition to several interviews and bonus features. In 2010 Zebra was inducted into the Louisiana Music Hall of Fame and is acknowledged as Louisiana's #1 Rock and Roll band by the Louisiana Music Commission. On October 18, 2012 Zebra was inducted into the Long Island Music Hall of Fame. Celebrating their 40 Anniversary in 2015 Zebra continues to WOW audiences across the country with their Hard-Rocking Live shows performing in select markets nationwide.-Making a Triumphant Return to NYC in November 2019.

Zebra did really well. Surprising the lead singers voice is still kicking at the high notes. Enjoyable!!
I closed my eyes and it was 1990 again. All three original members, and Randy Jackson still shreds on the guitar and hits the high notes singing. Love House of Blues!
Great under rated Band. Everyone who is a fan of 70s-80s rock and roll should see this show.
Still Rocking Hard. Each member was showing off. Club feel. Top notch. Lots of energy.
After 50 years, they still put on a great show. Always one of my favorite bands and always try to see them when they swing through town.
Zebra is truly worth going to see! 50th Anniversary Tour set list was packed with fan faves + new music, all performed by this beloved band whose lineup has remained constant throughout the years. Randy can still SHRED like nobody’s business (who am I kidding? the entire band was genuinely good & couldn’t have been happier to have seen them!) Side note: House of Blues Houston was a perfect venue (decent price, comfortable setting, & my seat had the perfect view of the stage.)
Had high hopes for this show, as I'm a fan of their music back from the 80's. Only 3 musicians, and each is so talented with all of their instruments. I was able to get 2nd row center tickets, so we were right up front. There were only about 350 people in the hall, which holds well over 1,000+ so the turnout was low. Unfortunately, the sounds techs set the low end (including the bass drum) so loud, it was thumping through our chests to the point of being more than uncomfortable. Now, before you say I can't handle loud rock and roll, I can assure you otherwise. I've attended close to 500 rock concerts in the last 45 years, and today we still see 12 - 15 big shows a year. Again, it was specifically the low-end being turned up way too much. It was reverberating in our chests so bad, we exited the hall midway through the 2nd song. So, hopefully others will attend and have a different experience. I would have liked to see a handful of my favorite songs from that era, but we never got there.
Brought back a lot of memories. They were just as good as they were 50 years ago.
Zebra was Awesome! I first saw them in the late 70’s and have been a fan ever since. Now as the youngest member Randy Jackson enters his 7th decade come February next year, I had to go again. I have no recollection of how many times I’ve seen this band but for me and my brother, seeing them is like seeing an old friend. Their musicianship is stellar and as always they rocked!!!
I saw them 44 years ago for the first time at The Soap Factory in Palisades Park n j and every show there. Believe it was the 29th December 1980. Friday night, Randy was smoking, hitting those high notes like old times. Guy and Felix’s game was on top. A great show with great seats. Amazing venue.
I liked how Randy, the lead singer got us involved introducing the members of the band, explaining the tunes that they played on some of their songs, especially introducing guy, the drummer also performing exceptionally well, and Felix with the keyboards, also exceptional Very impressive, very motivating, I can tell it captured the audience tremendously I think they played many songs that I really liked as well The instruments were exceptional, powerful, with lots of energy. Thank you for a wonderful experience and an amazing Friday night
I've loved the band Zebra for many years, but actually only knew one of their albums. The band was just outstanding! Randy Jackson is a crazy talented legend! So the songs that I knew were just awesome, and the other songs were such incredible pure classic rock jams! They exceeded my expectations by a landslide!!!
Randy Jackson still got it. I am so impressed with the band. I loved it and so did my husband and friends.
Zebra was awesome as expected! Venue was nice! Had a great time!
I have seen Zebra many times over the years and this was their best show ever! The most underrated band in history!
Bought ticket with a start time of 8:00 pm only to be told at arrival at the venue that the concert did not start till 9:00 pm. And then they were late and did not start till 9:30 and were awful. Later found out that lead singer had laryngitis. Horrible experience.
Been going see Zebra live since the early 80's & they still rock
Music so loud you could not understand one word being sung. Left early
Concert was good but seating was tight no room to move on folding chairs. Was not allowed to stand up to rock to the music had to sit like we were watching a movie.
