Zelocast : Glow with the Flow
🎙️ Welcome to ZeloCast : Glow with the Flow — where music, meaning, and a whole lot of good vibes come together! 🎶✨
Hosted by The Zelotones, Singapore’s very own passionate, independent band, we’re all about sharing real-life stories, spreading positivity, and championing inclusion for persons with disabilities (PWD).
Meet the crew:
🎸 Zach (bass) – Founder, groove master, and proof that losing sight doesn’t mean losing vision. From navigating blindness in young adulthood to rocking the bass like nobody’s business, Zach’s got wisdom and wicked riffs.
🥁 Alex (drums) – Started on bass, leveled up to drums, now smashing Grade 5 exams like it’s no big deal. Visually impaired since young, Alex’s independence and “why not?” attitude make him a powerhouse on and off stage.
🎤 Zyana (vocals & rhythm guitar) – Our powerhouse vocalist with a heart full of stories and a guitar that never lies. Living with tunnel vision hasn’t stopped her from crafting beautiful arrangements and lighting up any stage.
🎹 Ben (keys) – The “jukebox” pianist with Grade 8 chops, a killer smile, and a life story that redefines resilience. After two serious accidents, Ben’s motto is simple: keep playing, keep glowing.
💪 The Zelotones do it all – music, admin, PR, finances – proving that disability doesn’t define limits. We use our voices (and instruments!) to amplify PWD perspectives, spark conversations, and build a more inclusive Singapore.
Every episode, expect a mix of:
💬 Honest chats about life’s ups and downs
😂 Hilarious band banter
🎶 Behind-the-scenes of our music
💡 Inspiring stories of self-acceptance, family love & community power
Plus, you’ll get to hear how we created our unique sound, including our debut single “Merajuk” (find it on Spotify, YouTube, & Apple Music).
So plug in, press play, and let’s Glow with the Flow together. 🚀 Because in our world, everyone’s got a light worth shining.

Episode 5 : Zach is Back! Life’s a Journey
Guess who's back, back again? Yep — Zach is back, and we couldn’t be more excited (though we might poke fun at how dengue turned him into a skinny legend 😅).
In this feel-good, soul-lifting episode, our bassist and founding Zelotone opens up about his journey — from growing up with vision impairment to navigating life as a legally blind teen. Zach gets real about the emotional rollercoaster: the loneliness, the uncertainty… and how music became his therapy, compass, and superpower. 🎶✨
He takes us back to the Zelotones' humble beginnings in 2017 — when a group of passionate dreamers came together with nothing but heart, hustle, and a whole lotta rhythm. 🥁💫
We also dive into what independence really means, especially for persons with disabilities. Spoiler alert: It’s not always the fastest route, but it’s their route — and it’s filled with laughter, learning, and late-night jams.
So grab your headphones, get comfy, and join us for an inspiring, hilarious, and heartwarming ride through resilience, rediscovery, and rocking on — no matter what life throws your way.
Let’s glow with the flow, people! 🌟🎧
