Randy Jackson is the lead singer/guitarist for the rock band Zebra. His first foray into recording success began with the self-titled Zebra debut album, released on Atlantic Records in 1983. Critically acclaimed for its lush rock sounds, due in large part to Randy’s searing lead vocals and soaring guitar leads, the album sold 75,000 copies the first week. “Who’s Behind the Door” and “Tell Me What You Want, “written by Randy, received serious notice in the press, and helped, almost instantly, to form legions of Zebra fans. The latest Zebra release, Zebra IV, was also produced and engineered by Randy.

In 1989, Randy toured as keyboardist, guitarist, and backing vocalist, with the original, reunited Jefferson Airplane, the group’s last tour together. He has also worked extensively in the area of musical software and hardware development.
