Must Be 18 Years Old or Older To AttendZOSOThe Ultimate Led Zeppelin ExperienceFriday, April 14thDoors Open at 8pmShow Starts at 9:30pmTickets are $22 in AdvanceAvailable at www.VarsityTheatre.comOver the 28 years and over 4500 shows since ZOSO came together as a group in the mid-90s, the seemingly tireless quartet continues to earn its well-deserved reputation as being, in the words of The L.A. Times, head and shoulders above all other Led Zeppelin tributes. The reasons for that are manifest. For starters, surely no singer has ever captured the distinctive timbre, range, power, and seductive force of Robert Plants vocal delivery as adroitly as ZOSOs lead vocalist and founder, Matt Jernigan, whose flowing, corkscrew blonde locks and leonine stage moves evoke the Plant persona perfectly. ZOSO co-founder Adam Sandling, the bands multi-instrumental master of electric bass, keyboards, and mandolin, likewise echoes John Paul Jones myriad gifts to a tee, allowing the four-piece ZOSO to perform fully fleshed-out versions of classics like Kashmir, Trampled Under Foot, and Stairway to Heaven that demand up to six members or more to execute in other Zep-inspired ensembles. Thats not the ZOSO way; instead, the band draws liberally and meticulously from Led Zeppelins recorded live output to present a vivid performance picture of the classic live Zeppelin of 1970-1977. No wonder the St. Petersburg Times noted that, in addition to their virtuosity and spot-on visual presentation, ZOSO was also the most exacting of all the Led Zeppelin tributes. Meanwhile, the bands new blood has turbo-charged the ZOSO formula even more. Drummer Bevan Davies, the bands burly, black-haired batteur since 2015, flattens the bands fans nightly with his Bonham-approved triplet blasts, tympani thunder, and fat, lumbering grooves. Davies boasts an impressive pedigree that includes touring tenures with the likes of Danzig, Jerry Cantrell of Alice In Chains, Static X, and regular gigs with The Cults Billy
