At Zebulon in Frogtown, GROOP is billed on a four-artist program also naming Slow Heat, Ray Monde, and DJ Boogie Boudreaux. The event title presents Slow Heat and Ray Monde together, while the listing does not specify whether their appearance is a joint set, separate performances, or an ensemble. It likewise gives no details about GROOP’s formation or the sequence of the performances. The night is presented by Zebulon and is restricted to guests 21 and over.
Beyond the billing, the available material offers no biographical profile for GROOP, Slow Heat, Ray Monde, or DJ Boogie Boudreaux. It does not identify where any of these artists come from, their musical roles, regular collaborators, prior performances, or recordings. No review excerpts or critical descriptions accompany the event information. The listing identifies “Highway Jam” as its top track, but supplies no artist credit or further context for it. Thus the bill is identified, though the available information leaves the performers’ backgrounds undocumented.
Zebulon offers a unique evening where live music meets a creative café setting, housed in a former bakery with a striking bowstring-truss roof that enhances its sound. The venue features a large stage and a well-stocked bar alongside a menu of pizza, tacos, and small bites, inviting guests to enjoy both the music and casual dining. The room holds a diverse crowd drawn by its adventurous programming, from experimental music to jazz and indie rock, with performances that encourage attentive listening rather than just background noise. A welcoming patio extends the space, and the original 1930s wooden bar adds character. Shows range from ticketed to free, often with a late-night vibe that can include multiple sets or DJ sessions. This spot is a cultural anchor in Frogtown, blending local artistry with international acts in a relaxed yet focused environment.
