ZAK WATERS

Zak Waters, a Los Angeles native, comes oozing with confidence, sex appeal, and a Jackson Five's worth of charismatic vocal ability. This flourishing young multi-talented singer and musician has perfected the pop formula with a new record of undeniably infectious dance hits. Blending the futuristic funk of Jamiroquai, the pulsing electro-beat of Daft Punk, and the classic groove of Earth, Wind, and Fire, Waters’ music instantly appeals to anyone with eardrums and a pulse. Having seen his first taste of success as a member of Universal/Motown's pop/rock group Blueskyreality & opening for Third Eye Blind on multiple legs of their tour, Waters signed a worldwide publishing agreement with Warner/Chappell Music in 2010. Zak & his full live band have been shaking up dance floors across the country with his impressive and ambitious solo work ever since. With a brand new solo album, written and recorded entirely by the singer himself with co-producer and writing partner Jarrad Kritzstein, Waters is proving that you don’t need a gimmick when you combine a world- class songwriting ability with an other-worldly set of pipes. 2011 was spent focusing on his EP release, 'New Normal' and playing shows constantly. Zak recently played 7 SXSW showcases (4 official) this past year and has been on the hustle for his newest release since. He also has been working with famed up & coming Artist/DJ/ Producer 'Madeon.' They have a track coming out featuring Zak called, "The City" which will be out in September. Zak will also be featured on Australian Dj, DCUP's newest record.
