   About ZELOS

ZELOS (pr. zay-loss): Excitement of mind, ardour, fervour of spirit; ardour in embracing, pursuing, defending anything; zeal in behalf of, for a person or thing.

ZELOS is a rock band breaking on the DC music scene after finishing as the top rock act in June 2007 at DC"s 930 club in the regional finals of the Emergenza Festival. Their unique, motifodic-rock sound is rooted in the fertile soil of a 20 year education on the timeless melodies of classical repertoire. The Groveman brothers form the core of this five piece and received their classical training from the Levine School of Music in Georgetown and the University of Maryland.

After years marinating in the slumberous wine and cheese parties of Washington social circles, the brother"s affinity for songwriting and live performance was energized by the addition of an experienced drummer, lead guitarist, and jazz pianist. Oh yeah, also throw in about 2000 watts. The venues they play these days are a bit louder than the gazebo garden parties the brother"s remember from their formative years. Though ZELOS has been described as a mixture between Coldplay, John Mayer, and The Fray, band member Judah Groveman would submit the following criteria for the music they make:

"Whenever people ask me what kind of music I like, I"ve always had the hardest time answering that question. Instead of trying to spontaneously come up with an exhaustive list of art--to include Bach, Beethoven, and the Beatles--I just say, "I"m into any music that strikes a chord of emotion common to humanity with individual originality." We hope some of our music achieves this for our listeners."

Having just completed their first studio project "Before the Morning" EP, the band is excited about each opportunity they have to bring their tunes to new ears.
