Zelle is a Filipino alternative pop/rock band.[1]
Formed by and named after the group's female vocalist, Jeazell Grutas, the band released their debut album Search for Warmth in 2007 on Sony BMG, which consists of 11 original songs.[2]
At the Myx Music Awards 2008, the band won the award for Favorite Bandarito Performance.[3]
In 2010, Grutas' collaboration with rap artist Gloc-9, titled "Upuan", won five awards including Song of the Year at the 23rd Awit Awards.[4]
