Zilla is a livetronica band based in Boulder, CO. It consists of Jamie Janover, Michael Travis and Aaron Holstein. The group began as a side project for Travis in his time away from the more popular String Cheese Incident. However, since SCI's hiatus in 2007 Zilla and EOTO have become Travis' main projects. The band's shows are 100% improvised, as are their two studio recordings.

Livetronica, also known as jamtronica, started in Philadelphia and is a style of music that blends jam band elements with those of electronica. The name is a portmanteau of the terms "live music" and "electronica."

The String Cheese Incident (SCI) is an American band from Crested Butte and Telluride, Colorado, formed in 1993. The band is composed of Michael Kang, Michael Travis, Bill Nershi, Kyle Hollingsworth, and Keith Moseley, and, in 2004, Jason Hann.
