zebrahead are going strong as they turn the page to a new chapter of the band’s long career. As they say goodbye and best wishes to vocalist/guitarist Matty Lewis, they are thrilled to announce that long-time staple in the punk rock scene Adrian Estrella is joining the family. ‘Lay Me To Rest’ serves as a great taster of their new sound and of what can be expected from their upcoming EP.
On his new position, Adrian states: “After knowing the dudes in zebrahead for years now and having played a few shows with them and already considered them friends, I was honoured when I got the call to join the band. Working together on the new songs has been such a fun time and I look forward to playing shows and meeting the fans.”
On the single, he continues: “I am so beyond stoked to have you all hear our new single ‘Lay Me To Rest.’ I could not be prouder of the song, work, time and effort we’ve all put into this” .
Vocalist / rapper Ali Tabatabaee commented: “I can’t wait for everyone to hear ‘Lay Me to Rest.’ the song is about appreciating the time you have and making the most of each and every day. Adrian’s powerful voice really complements the zebrahead sound and I’m excited for our fans to hear the new songs! Chapter three…let’s go!”
Bassist Ben Osmundson commented: “The band came up with the idea for the video when ‘Lay Me To Rest’ was picked as the introduction song for Adrian. Since it incorporates death and moving onward, we thought it was the perfect fit for what was actually happening in real life to the band. We had to decide if we were going let one of the most important things in our life die, or if we wanted to use this hard time to re-energize us and reaffirm how lucky we are to be doing this for a living,”
zebrahead will play Slamdunk Festival on 4th & 5th September 2021.
zebrahead – Lay Me To Rest
Starting with the release of theYellow EP on indie label Dr. Dream in 1998, the buzz began and zebrahead signed to major label Columbia before releasing their full-length debut, Waste Of My Mind. Their second album Playmate Of The Year hit in mid-2000 to rave reviews, of which the album’s infectious title track garnered airplay on some of the planet’s biggest alternative stations.
Stupid Fat Americans EP was released as a Japanese exclusive the next year. The band spent the summer of 2006 on the Vans Warped Tour, and Broadcast To The World was released, an album that went gold in Japan in just a month. In 2008 the band released Phoenix, and Panty Raid followed in 2009, followed by Get Nice in 2011, and Call Your Friends in 2013.
Throughout all that life threw at them, zebrahead’s touring raged on and the band continued to bring their explosive live show to festivals like Reading and Leeds, Download, Southside, Rock AM Ring/Park, Summersonic, Punkspring, Fuji Rock, Groezrock, Pukkelpop, SlamDunk, Sonisphere, Hurricane, Greenfield, NovaRock, Area 4 and Highfield, to name a few.
Since their incarnation zebrahead has shared highs and lows, sold over two million albums to date, survived label changes, and earned a Grammy nomination from a collaboration with Motörhead. As they get set to once again bring their distinctive fun-filled sound to the masses with a new member, new music and lots of touring, the future is bright for the band and their worldwide family of fans and friends.
