Zep Boys – Australia’s Ultimate Led Zeppelin Experience
Formed in Adelaide in 1986, Zep Boys have spent nearly five decades bringing the legendary music of Led Zeppelin to life with electrifying energy and astonishing authenticity. What started as a few “one-off shows” for the love of Zeppelin quickly became a relentless touring career — one that has seen Zep Boys perform thousands of gigs across Australia and the world.
Led by founding member and powerhouse vocalist Vince Contarino, the Zep Boys have become known for their uncompromising dedication to the Zeppelin legacy. From the early days in local pubs to sold-out international tours, their live performances have always delivered a raw, faithful tribute to one of rock’s greatest bands.
In 2005, Zep Boys took a bold step by collaborating with the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra to create Zeppelin Flies Again — a groundbreaking fusion of rock and orchestral power. The success of that concert launched an era of symphonic shows that took the band to the Sydney Opera House, London Palladium, Hammersmith Odeon, and major venues across the UK and Europe.
For the past 20 years, orchestral collaborations have been a major part of the Zep Boys journey — but now, they’re returning to their roots. Back to the pubs, the sweat-soaked stages, and the fans who have stood by them through every tour and line-up change.
“…the Zep Boys are the real deal… they play with passion and above all a love of music … many attempt to pull off the trademark Plant howl but few succeed – Vince is one who does… they should be given an open ticket to return.”- Daily Telegraph Manchester
Whether backed by a full orchestra or stripped down to the raw power of a rock band, Zep Boys continue to deliver the unforgettable music of Led Zeppelin with fire, soul, and unmatched intensity.
