Making the bold move from the harsh winters of Minnesota to the endless summers of America’s West Coast has certainly paid dividends for Zack King. The enormously talented guitarist and singer songwriter has been consistently releasing music since 2020, with his latest single "What's on your mind?" highlighting how far he has come.

Music has always been his salvation and provided the support he needed to get through the tough times. Originally writing alt-rock songs, it takes a journey to mold an artist and now he has unearthed his natural groove among the palm trees of Los Angeles. Beautifully crafted songs that show a distinct affinity with the iconic band All Time Low and artist Machine Gun Kelly, Zack delivers songs that trigger emotions deep within the soul. Working with former Red One producer Eric Sanicola and Mixer Trevor Muzzy, the solo artist displays a vulnerability and wears his heart on his sleeve with emotional vocals and a unique story-telling ability.

Migrating between pop rock with occasional punk influences, Zack creates hooks and melodies that are instantly recognizable and enduring. His lyrics are a poignant and powerful reminder that the path to a successful life is full of obstacles that need to be met head on. With over 500K plays on Spotify alone, his reputation as an intricate, intelligent and inspired musician is growing day by day. More and more people are discovering his back catalogue which features an astounding album and countless singles. That legacy is only going to grow with 2022 delivering more memorable moments. 

Finally feeling that he has found himself, Zack is not bound by the expectations of an industry that likes to put people in a box, and has now uncovered the freedom to express himself in ways previously unimagined. Heartfelt, authentic and true, that unshackling of his potential will see him come to the attention of audiences everywhere. Bringing his music to the American public, Zack will be embarking on a national tour where he will showcase all the new songs that are ready to see the light of day. Whether it be in the warm embrace of his laidback songs or those that feature a more upbeat pop-rock tempo, Zack King is the artist that will reach inside your heart and let you know that you are alive.

His latest release "What's on your mind?" is a pop-punk song that drew influences from Machine Gun Kelly, All Time Low, and Blink 182. The combination of powerful sound and hitting lyrics guaranteed to Zack a great success, as the tune has already reached more than 130K streams on Spotify after only 2 weeks since its release. Describing incredibly well the behaviour of a selfish and narcissist person, it's definitely a song that will give you the motivation and strenght to move from a toxic relationship. Aside the meaning, the rhythm alone is perfect to give you motivation in life, that is something that reflects Zack's commitment in helping others mental health.

About the song, Zack shares: "Everyone's going on about these summer flings and falling in love, but what about those people that are leading you on? "What's on your Mind?" describes the tragic feeling of falling for someone only for them to rip your heart out. That person always seems to be playing you like a puppet, by pulling on your heart strings, and making you second guess your every move. All you want them to do is leave, or tell you they are in it for the long haul. Eventually you realize it's best to move onto someone new".

Zack has been using his platform not only to share his music with the rest of the world, but to connect with his fans about mental health. He has created a private community not only for fans of his music, but those struggling with anxiety and depression. This community doesn't only listen to music, they also talk about mental health and share struggles and stories with each other. Zack states: "I never expected music to be a great vehicle for helping others. Creating this community has been one of the most meaningful things that ever happened in my career, and my life. I'm excited to continue sharing my struggles and experience with anxiety and depression, and helping others improve their mental health".

"I found peace and happiness through creating music and hopefully my audiences will find the same" – Zack King

What’s On Your Mind?

Mrs. Complicated

Always looking down on you

No wonder why you’re jaded

She’s leading you on, it’s nothing new

Always looking for guys unlike you

She’s always looking down on you

What’s on your mind

Baby I just need you to

Tell me a lie

Something with an attitude

Mrs. Overrated

First she’s up, then she’s down on you

About to lose your patience 

She’s back around right, before you do 

Always looking for guys unlike you

First she’s up, then she’s down on you

What’s on your mind

Baby I just need you to

Tell me a lie

Something with an attitude

Hold me close, say my name, your wicked games drive me insane

What’s on your mind

I know I just need you to

Something with an attitude

Older country, folk and rock'n'roll vibes in the upcoming album by Drew Kiddoo and the Blackouts

Image
Drew Kiddoo and the Blackouts Drew Kiddoo And The Blackouts is a honky tonk country band based out of Ithaca , NY. Their unique blend of traditional country western, folk, and early rock and roll has captivated audiences across the region since they formed in 2018. Drew's songwriting is the heart and soul of the band. He writes from personal experience, and his lyrics are infused with love, whiskey, the open road, and that old "crying over an empty glass of booze" style of melancholy. The Blackouts are a misfit collage of local musicians who bring Drew's songs to life with that boot stompin', barn-burnin' energy. The album "Giddyup and Go" will be released on June 14th, in accordance with the release party set for the same date at The Range in Ithaca, next to Cornell University. I had the opportunity to listen to the full lenght album in advance, and I can't wait to share my personal take on it! "Giddyup and Go" is a collection of song...

Midwerstern Gothic storybooks meet 80s rock opera in Brian Bacon's new album "Murder of Crows"

Brian Bacon A creator to his core, Brian Bacon ’s dressed up style of folk rock finds an almost miraculous balance between nostalgia and bold originality. At age 50, Brian left Cleveland, Ohio where he had lived for over 20 years raising daughters and moved into a tiny home in Nashville found on Airbnb to record an album with a producer he met on Instagram, the result was his second album, "Murder of Crows" .  Produced by Nick Bullock and performed by a band of professional studio musicians in Nashville, "Murder of Crows" is a ten-song road trip into a woodsy Midwestern Gothic storybook full of poetic character stories like something you would expect from a rock opera or modern musical. Listening to the whole album you'll have the feeling of being seated in the front row of a Broadway Musical, captured by the storytelling and the engaging rhythm. Its intricate arrangements of vocals, synths, guitars, strings and horns reminds me a lot of 80s pop/rock music that ...
