🎙️ 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.
Welcome to a very special milestone — Episode 50 of Zelocast – Glow with the Flow! 🎉
Fifty episodes in, we've laughed together, cried together, shared our stories, and celebrated inclusion every step of the way. And for this milestone episode, we're honoured to welcome a very special guest who has been capturing hearts across social media with her incredible talent and infectious personality — Anisah! 🎤✨
If you've come across her viral singing videos, you'll already know why so many people are talking about her. But behind that beautiful voice is an inspiring story of resilience, determination, family support, and staying true to yourself.
In this episode, Anisah takes us behind the scenes of her journey — from singing in the bathroom just to enjoy the echo, to performing on major stages and building a growing fanbase online. She also shares the ups and downs of adjusting to Secondary 1 life, including a hilarious ”tongue slip” during her PSLE oral examination that still makes everyone laugh today. 😆
But this episode isn't just about music.
Joining us are Anisah's parents, Mr. Sufian and Mdm. Nurul, who open up about their family's journey raising two visually impaired children. They speak honestly about the emotions they faced when they first received the diagnosis, the challenges along the way, and how those difficult moments eventually transformed into strength, gratitude, and purpose.
What begins as a conversation quickly turns into a beautiful reminder that every family's story is unique, and that love often grows strongest through life's greatest challenges.
💙 Since Father's Day is also just around the corner, we couldn't let the opportunity pass without celebrating the fathers who quietly stand behind the scenes.
One of the most touching moments comes when Anisah shares a heartfelt tribute to her dad — thanking him for the countless drives to rehearsals, performances, and events, and for always believing in her dreams even before anyone else did.
The emotions continue as Zyana reflects on her own late father, sharing memories of the man who was her greatest supporter and source of strength before his passing three years ago.
And just when you think the episode couldn't get any more special…
🎶 Anisah takes the microphone and leaves the entire studio speechless with a breathtaking live performance of ”My Heart Will Go On.”
Trust us — this is a performance you won't want to miss.
This milestone episode is filled with laughter, tears, inspiration, family, friendship, and a powerful reminder that our greatest abilities often come from the people who believe in us.
✨ Together we make a difference. Win or lose, we are still champions.
