Zach is a lifelong musician, and a tech savvy audiofile. He is a classically trained pianist who began writing and performing music in his teenage years. While obtaining his BA in Music Technology at Transylvania University, Zach was frequently invited to join the stage with a number of local bands, eventually landing a spot DJing for a local hip hop act. What began as a fun way to open and close shows, eventually evolved into a passion and a profession.
Zach is well regarded for his ability to select both lesser-known tracks and modern hits that are guaranteed to get people moving. With a wide range of tastes and musical experience, he is able to put together a playlist for any occasion. Currently Zach spends his days engineering sessions for a variety of musicians in his production studio, writing and mixing his own music, and gigging with a few different local acts. When he’s not in the studio, you might find him riding down Lake Front Trail or catching a jazz concert at the Green Mill tavern near his apartment. /
Our DJ Zach was amazing, and we really enjoyed working with Green Line Talent. They made the selection and planning process super easy for us, and we had an in person meeting with Zach a few months before the wedding to go over our plan and do a vibe check, which was great for our confidence. On the day, Zach got to the venue early and set up in no time, he was constantly in communication with us, the GM for the venue, and our photographer about our timeline, he was a great MC, and the music choices throughout were on point. We got a bunch of compliments from our guests on how much fun they had dancing and how much they enjoyed the music. Zach even recorded the audio from our ceremony and toasts during the reception and shared the edited files within a week! Green Line Talent made the process a breeze, with helpful reminders of when things were due, and always making themselves available if we had questions or concerns.
