About Me

My real name is Zac, I'm 25 years old, and I live in Fort Wayne, IN. I'm a melding of many genres, mostly electronica, but I dabble in electric/acoustic music as well. Leave me a line if you like what you hear, or just to say hello! Peace.

New song soon...

New song (probably) on the way. I've got a good start, and once it makes it over that hump, it's usually past the point of no return. Expect a more chilled out song than Twilight. So check back i...
