“Zebuel” is a Southern-born, West Coast-based producer, guitarist and DJ known for his eclectic selections and high-energy sets. His music is a hybrid of funk, soul, reggae, and bass-heavy beats: Dub/Funk/Crunk. The sound is Memphis meets California, a sort of space-age island soaked bass 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 to test out some sub-woofers.

Zeb has collaborated with artists such as CharlesTheFirst, B. Bravo, Kingmost and Poldoore and his tracks have been remixed by the likes of SubDocta, Deejay Theory, Roommate and Balkan Bump. 

Zeb and crew started a thriving weekly event in San Francisco known as Smoked Out Soul which unites DJs and producers with some of the best musicians in the Bay Area. Together with trumpet player Will Magid (Balkan Bump), Saxophonist Teddy Raven and drummers Paul Oliphant, Brandon Lee and Enrique Padilla he has created a bass-heavy future funk and soul party that can be heard on Bay Area Sound Systems and select shows up and down the West Coast.

After gaining popularity as a party, Smoked Out Soul hit the road with a top-shelf live act which is honored to have played festivals such as Bonnaroo, Symbiosis, Lightning in a Bottle, Joshua Tree Music Festival and clubs such as The Great American Music Hall, The Independent, The Chapel, Great Northern and Rickshaw Stop.

Zebuel is blessed to have been a part of touring acts that gave him the opportunity to perform at venues such as Red Rocks Amphitheater, MTV Telus Fet Canada and X-Games Aspen.

Catch Zebuel behind the decks at your next favorite party, rocking guitar with Peter Joseph Burtt & The King Tide, or on stage with the Bay Area-based DJ / Live electro-funk Collective Smoked Out Soul.
