Zebra is gearing up to celebrate a remarkable milestone: their 50th anniversary with an exciting new tour. Fans can look forward to the release of their much-anticipated next album, which promises to deliver the classic sound that has defined their career. This tour is not just a celebration; it’s a testament to their enduring legacy and influence in the music industry.

In an official statement, the band highlighted their unique position in music history, stating, “Zebra holds one of those distinctions the average listener might not be aware of.” They proudly noted that they are the longest-running American band still touring with all of their original members. This accomplishment speaks volumes about their commitment to their music and fans over the decades.

The original members, Randy Jackson, Felix Hanemann, and Guy Gelso, are currently in the studio collaborating with renowned producer Jack Douglas. Douglas, who played a pivotal role in the band’s early successes, including their acclaimed 1983 self-titled debut album, is set to help shape their new sound. During their early years, Zebra was signed to Swan Song, the legendary label founded by the iconic band Led Zeppelin, which further solidified their place in rock history.

As they gear up for the Zebra 50th anniversary tour, the band reflects on their incredible journey, noting, “These original band members have performed together every year for the last 50 years.” With the upcoming tour set for 2025, fans can anticipate an unforgettable experience as Zebra continues to entertain audiences worldwide.

Tickets for the tour are now available for purchase, and fans are advised to act quickly, as additional dates are expected to be announced soon. Details regarding their fifth studio album, which follows the release of Zebra IV in 2003, are still forthcoming, generating excitement among their loyal fanbase.

Zebra also expressed enthusiasm about reuniting with producer Douglas, who is known for his work with rock legends like Aerosmith, John Lennon, Cheap Trick, and the New York Dolls. Douglas produced the band’s first two and most successful albums, setting the stage for their remarkable career. The band plans to reveal the first single from their upcoming album this spring, which is sure to delight their fans.

Interestingly, the executive who originally signed Zebra later went on to sign Greta Van Fleet, creating a unique connection between two bands that share a Zeppelin influence. “And he says to me, ‘I started off with a Zeppelin band and I ended up with a Zeppelin band,’” Jackson recounted in an interview with AL.com, highlighting the enduring legacy of classic rock.
