Grand Junction’s Zolopht Breaking Through

I've been in radio for nearly 30 years. In that stretch of time, I've seen hundreds of bands and countless shows. After all that excessive music consumption, I have developed a keen ear when it comes to musical talent. After hearing a couple songs I can tell you if a band has what it takes to break through. Zolopht is one of those bands.

Established in 2009, Zolopht has become a premier act in the Colorado music scene. Loosely described as psychedelic reggae-rock, Zolopht has an entirely unique sound that is as catchy as it is progressive.

Lovingly crafted music and rigorous touring have provided the band diehard fans around the country and beyond. Zolopht has shared the stage with artists such as The Wailers, Robert Randolph and the Family Band, Dirty Heads, Tribal Seeds, Passafire, Ballyhoo! and Katchafire. Later this month the boys will take to the road once again heading to the east coast and back across the midwest.
