About zach
Hi, I'm Zach!
I’m a session singer, musician, vocal coach, and music director in Nashville, TN. I am passionate about encouraging and inspiring those I work with no matter the project or platform.
My Story
A native of Huntsville, Alabama, I attended Trevecca Nazarene University where I received a B.A. in Commercial Music with an emphasis in Vocal Performance (2014). I have come to call Nashville home since 2010 and have passionately pursued all things music. I am an accomplished session singer and actor who brings integrity, precision, and positivity to each project. I am a member of TenTwoSix music where I have had the honor of participating in sessions with Lifeway, Yamaha, Brentwood Benson, Prism Music, Bradley Knight, and many more. As an actor, I have performed with Studio Tenn, Street Theatre Company, the Boiler Room Theatre, among others. My future endeavors include: Pursuing a Master's Degree in Music, performing professionally, and teaching at a university/college level.
Music
Having been raised in the melting pot of the south, Zach was influenced by the genres of Pop, Indie Rock, Gospel, R&B, Funk, Jazz, Church Music, Southern Rock, Country, Folk, and Blues. Eventually, everything that touched his ears immediately became a new road of exploration. In college, he began to explore music on a deeper level and took more of an interest in the composition and theory of music. His goal was to not just love music but to intimately understand its beauty and structure. He found a passion in classical and choral music and was a member of the Treveccal Madrigalians for three years during which time he traveled across the United States, even a European Tour, performing in world-renowned venues. In addition to composition and songwriting work, he is currently a member of TenTwoSix Music Group and Music Director for Act Too Players School of Music and Theatre.
