Zach Russack

Zach Russack is a singer/songwriter based out of Hackettstown, New Jersey. Zach's music has a variety of influences, ranging from Elliott Smith, Jeff Buckley, Death Cab For Cutie, Neil Young, and many more.

At the age of 13, Zach received his first electric guitar for Christmas, and joined his first band the following year. Since discovering the rush from performing, Zach has made it his duty to pursue music in any way, shape, or form, no matter the cost. He studied Music & Sound Recording from The University of New Haven from 2010-2014, and pursued audio engineering, along with sticking to his first found love - playing the guitar. He then acquired an internship right out of school at Electric Lady Studios in West Village, learning the ropes of the professional environment that he was encased in. After 4 months of time and energy dedicated to the facility, Zach had to move forward and find work as an audio engineer.

After the internship, Zach became the A2 Audio Engineer at The Newton Theatre in Newton, NJ, running monitors and occasional FOH for the live acts that would come through. Along with this position, he began to write songs on his own time, delving into his personal life along with creating imaginative stories that could be relatable to an audience. He found that creating songs as a whole gave him solace and peace of mind, along with noticing that many follow him into his own settings as he sings about them.

His first LP was released on October 14th, 2016, and it can be found on this page. It is also available for purchase / stream on iTunes, Apple Music, Spotify, Bandcamp, SoundCloud, YouTube, and many more.
