Review for ZoSo:
Taking to the stage in venues across the country, ZoSo brings a passion and experience level that is immediately seen and felt. As time goes on, the members of ZoSo seem to get closer to embodying the role they are playing, matching the sounds, moves and attitude of Led Zeppelin in their heyday.
ZoSo was founded over 21 years ago, when lead singer Matt Jernigan was at a crossroad in his musical career. Well-known for his vocal prowess, he didn't want to go in the heavier, growling direction that metal had veered toward. It was while he was considering his next move that a few trusted industry friends swore up and down that he would be a natural doing Robert Plant in a Zeppelin tribute.
Convinced to give it a shot, Jernigan assembled a talented trio of players to form the first ZoSo lineup, and they quickly caught on in many markets, including Los Angeles, Dallas, Atlanta and Denver.
In the ensuing years, ZoSo has developed a strong and loyal following throughout the U.S. and played in several international markets in South and Central America and East Asia.
For fans, ZoSo's live performances are an immersion into a classic music experience, bringing them back to the halcyon days of Led Zeppelin and rock n' roll. And it's become a multi-generational experience, with crowds being filled with many younger fans between 16 and 25 that want to get that vaunted live Zeppelin experience.
Jernigan wants to keep making their show better, so that more generations of rock fans can enjoy the performances he and his bandmates have worked tirelessly to perfect. "Performing as Zeppelin takes years to really get right. Their playing styles and moves, the range and composition, the way they played loose but tight in their live shows, the solos, look and feel--everything we do, we continue to focus on improving every part of our show."
ZoSo welcomed new drummer, Bevan Davies, to the lineup in 2015, with fans loudly voicing their approval due to his top-level drumming chops. Davies brings an eye-popping resume, including having manned the kit for Static-X, Danzig and Alice in Chains, as well as teaching master classes in John Bonham drumming techniques. Witness Bevan in the midst of his solo on "Moby Dick".
The proof that they are doing things right comes when a packed house howls in approval as they sear through a setlist of Zeppelin's major hits and deep cuts with equal fervor and expertise.
