Zappa Plays Zappa

About

American tribute act led by Dweezil Zappa, the eldest son of late American composer and musician Frank Zappa, devoted to performing the music of Frank Zappa. The band went on the road in 2006 and has since featured various line-ups, also featuring guest musicians who have performed with Frank.


In 2016, Dweezil was forced to tour under his own name, due to a cease-and-desist order by Zappa Family Trust, which owns the Zappa trademark. In 2018, after years-long feud, the Zappa siblings reconciled.
