Zach Hood

Zach Hood specializes in emotions so tender they appear to quiver, marrying these feelings to a fluid pop that touches on melodic hooks, skittish R&B, and earnest folk -- a blend that can sound youthful while also bearing elements of maturity reminiscent of Ed Sheeran. Hood's signatures were evident on "Flashbacks," an autobiographical excursion into his childhood that earned him an audience upon its release in early 2021. Within a few months, Hood signed with Arista, and over the next few years, he built his audience with popular singles like "Never Thought a Heart Could Break Itself" and "When She Was Mine" from his 2022 Blossom EP. The 2024 highlight "Weatherman" preceded Hood's full-length debut, Whispering Pines, which arrived in late 2024. A native of Daphne, Alabama, Zach Hood grew up fascinated by music. He taught himself how to play piano, assisted by videos on YouTube. During middle school, he started playing cover songs, eventually posting a cappella renditions on Instagram. By high school he had moved to TikTok. Hood recorded his first professional songs in 2020. That June, he released a cover of Alexander 23's "IDK You Yet" but by September, he'd recorded the original "Flashbacks." Released in January 2021, "Flashbacks" recounted the trauma of his father's departure when Hood was eight years old. A lighter number, its successor "Isabelle," expanded his online audience enough that Hood signed deals with Arista and William Morris Endeavor by the middle of 2021; he relocated to Los Angeles soon afterward. "Pink Ferrari" was the first single Hood released under his deal with Arista, followed by "Main Character" and "Just Kids" by the end of 2021. Hood released "I Miss My Friends," a song where he pined for the pals he left behind in Alabama, in January 2022. Additional singles like "Never Knew a Heart Could Break Itself" and "Lonely Isn't the Word for This" followed throughout the year, leading up to the release of his debut EP, Blossom, in November. He continued to mine his emotional past on 2023 cuts like "30" and "Neon Skies," in the build-up to a longer project. The dramatic 2024 standout, "Weatherman," became the anchor point for Hood's debut album, released later that year. Named for the apartment complex where he came of age after his parents' divorce, Whispering Pines was a heartfelt ten-song collection that featured guest appearances from ROSIE and Sasha Alex Sloan.
