#CMAFest25: Zach John King talks blending sounds and “I Deserve A Heartbreak”

Zach John King is a Georgia boy who comes from a long line of poets, and that is evident in how he puts lyrics first in his songs.
He effortlessly blends a raw alt-rock edge with a country sound, and that can be heard in his latest EP Slow Down.

More From Zach

We were able to catch up with him at this year’s CMA Fest and spoke about finding his sound, his latest project, and “I Deserve a Heartbreak.”
