View Lonesome State's EPK "Zach's an old soul for sure. I think you're going to enjoy watching his craft develop over the coming years. "Hotel Cities" is a great snapshot of a young songwriter trying on his influences for size, and looking for his own voice. It's rare that one gets to witness this kind of journey from the start, and this CD is a helluva first volley."


Jon Nolan- The Wire

"The ability to tell a story; that's what sets apart the gifted singer/songwriter from a guy with a guitar. Zach Tremblay is a story teller. He possesses lyrical sensibilities firmly based in the Kerouac style, but with a fresh perspective. His voice, simultaneously raspy, yet tender, is the perfect compliment to his writing style. Weaving glimpses of intricate lives into three-minute doses, Zach's lyrics leave you feeling as if you know the people he's just sung about. You know where they live. You know their favorite pizza. You know their experiences because they have become your friend. That is Zach's gift to the listener. Zach Tremblay may be the most exciting singer/songwriter since Ellis Paul."

Thom Keith- Avant Coast Music

"This guy's got more street cred than Marc Cohn"

Seth Gooby- Local Buffoon
