Zoon has been played on NTS in shows including Moin, featured first on 20 June 2023. Songs played include Gaagige and Care.

Daniel Monkman, the indigenous Canadian musician behind the moniker Zoon, refers to their music as "moccasin-gaze." The project's 2020 debut, Bleached Wavves, blends dense waves of elaborately sculpted guitar noise with rhythms inspired by First Nations traditions, and Monkman's lyrics reflect their life struggles, from facing adversity due to their heritage to overcoming addiction. Monkman was raised in the Brokenhead Ojibwe Nation, located near Winnipeg. They fell in love with shoegaze as a teenager, particularly My Bloody Valentine, but had a hard time finding others who appreciated the style. Later moving to the nearby town of Selkirk, they faced racism and poverty, and turned to drugs and alcohol as an escape. They started a band called the Blisters, who released the three-song EP Insects in 2011 and continued playing until their 2015 breakup. After the death of a close friend due to an overdose, as well as a few near-death experiences of their own, Monkman decided to clean up and get their life back on track. Refocusing on music, they moved to Hamilton, Ontario in 2018 and formed a group named Bloom. They recorded and released an EP titled Bleached Wavves by themselves, and a few record labels expressed interest. They signed with Paper Bag under the name Zoon, short for the Ojibwe word Zoongide’ewin, meaning "bravery, courage, the Bear Spirit," and Bleached Wavves was released as an album in June of 2020. Their sophomore album Bekka Ma'iingan was released in April 2023.
