Owned by Guillaume Blestel and Joce and Jef Soubiran,[2][3] Zebulon featured nightly performances by local and international musicians and performers, including Ravi Shankar and Melvin Van Peebles. It was considered a throwback to the kind of space in Greenwich Village in the 1960s..

The venue features in the official video for Melvin Van Peebles' Lilly Done The Zampoughi Every Time I Pulled Her Coattail.

Non-Music Programming

Being owned by two natives of France[4], Zebulon has been noted as a hub for France emigrants and francophiles from all over LA. Zebulon frequently collaborates with the francophile movie screening club, La Collectionneuse,[5] to host free screenings of French films. They encourage club members to congregate at the Zebulon for drinks and food before their events in costume. Sometimes the screenings are preluded with DJ’s/musical acts in theme of the film.
