Band to Join, Vocalist, Vocalist - Tenor, Acoustic Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums, Keyboard, Piano, Background Singer.ABOUT
Hi, My name is Zach and I am a singer and guitar player. I have a large library of original songs covering many genres. I love music that brings a smile, and makes people dance. Most of my tunes have a reggae feel with shades of funk, bluegrass, rock, improvisation, psychedelic. They lend themselves well to vocal harmonies, and have a lot of space to breath with creative interpretation. I just moved back to Denver, after being in Pittsburgh for two years, and am looking to be apart of a passionate musical family of kind souls, who want to make a positive change in the world through music. No ego’s or bad attitudes please. Music is such a sacred thing that I believe it should be completely positive. We’re alive right? Lets enjoy it! I love to have a good time, but I am very dedicated musician, and I take music very seriously. I am not on stage for free drinks or popularity, but to channel the healing energies of music to spread joy and love, and inspiration in our audience, and in ourselves. well, okay, the free drinks are nice...
I spent the past five years in Denver as lead singer/guitar player for the band “Home”. Throughout our time together we played many major music festivals across the country including 10klf, Summer Camp, and two times at Wakarusa. We also did a great deal of touring across the Midwest with one tour taking us to Texas.
The mandolin player and I are working on forming a new project. We have great connections at festivals and on the touring circuit. We want to make this our career, and are looking for the talented dedicated musicians to bring this dream to life.
