Zebra is a funk-rock band from Canmore. The band uses a smooth dose of tenor saxophone bouncing from funky rhythms to improvised grooves and good ol’ rock n’ soul.  

The band’s diversity is its strength - covering 4 generations between its 5 members. Joe Ernewein (saxophone) was raised on classic vinyl, Mike Kragt (bass) and Matt Meuller (drums) get some extra low end from cassette tapes in the 80’s, while Jake Posacki (guitar), Jake Steif (trumpet) were rocking discmans on the way to school and were eventually spoiled with the onset of free digital music floating forever in the clouds. Despite these generational differences, the band settled on their common passion for strong groove and music that moves.

Zebra shares this passion through their live show. With a mix of originals/covers and genres to please a variety of audiences, the band works with the crowd to spark joy in the room.
