Zachary.O Music RST

Picture
Bio​
Zachary is a 17 year old male from the planet Earth. He enjoys music, and jamming with friends. He found  his love for music at an early age. He took drum lessons in early 2011 and quickly grew tired of it.  He's been playing music for 3 years and is a quick learner. He plays drums, guitar and bass and has just started singing this year. He loves to play rock and to improvise with friends. He has yet to start writing his own music, although he has ideas.  He hopes to continue his pursuit in music while he attends Algonquin College for radio broadcasting. (Hopefully !)

My Song Introduction
  • Comets
  • Instrumentation:
  • Those sweet sweet keys - Nick S
  • Twangy man-  Ethan 
  • Little Drummer Boy - Ryan 
  • Big bassy - Zach 
  • Story behind the song
  • It's ambiguous and without lyrics it's hard to interpret  but I think it's about loneliness depression/negativity people never show. The song has a spacey feel, hence the name "Comets".
