Interview: Zach Waters of ZWB discusses debut album, Up & Running

Zach Waters is a singer/songwriter based in Los Angeles, California. Forming the Zach Waters Band in 2016, the musician found his footing as a solo artist in blues-oriented spaces. By 2022, he’d switch to a hard rock sound, and simultaneously shorten the band’s name to ZWB to reflect a more collaborative approach. Amidst a slew of lineup changes, the trio has since kicked off the new year with their debut full-length album, Up & Running, on January 13th, and later this month will continue on a national tour.

I caught up with Waters to discuss his formative years, the concept behind Up & Running, the state of modern rock, and what he has gleaned on his journey thus far.

About Jake Kussmaul

I come from a family who is passionate about all things music. I learned to sing at an early age, and by 13, had my very own Fender Strat guitar. I tried my hardest at learning all that I could. Because I was born with cerebral palsy, I had to teach myself an adaptive playing style. I learned to write and record my own music, despite these difficulties. In college, I started making great use of my writing abilities by reviewing music, as well as copy editing. I guess it's best to stick with what you know, while welcoming a fair challenge at the same time.
