About
Zach Hood is a name that’s becoming more and more familiar to the mainstream music world with every release. And yet, there’s still not a lot out there about the 20-year-old artist from Alabama who’s garnered 50+ million streams across his first six singles, had placements on Spotify’s Pop Rising, Radar US & an appearance on the Global Viral 50 chart.
Hood had actually never stepped into a recording studio until late September of 2020, and his first in-person session turned into “Flashbacks,” a song about his father leaving his family when he was eight years old that landed on Spotify's New Music Friday. "Isabelle," Hood's second single catapulted the artist to a larger conversation in music and racked up 25+ million streams in a couple months.
The streams, playlist adds, signing a deal with Arista Records & landing touring representation from William Morris Endeavor – with agents that work on the likes of Olivia Rodrigo & 24kGoldn – are no small feats for any artist, but are perhaps more impressive for Hood who started everything from scratch last January.
He's gotten this far by leading with authentic & relatable stories that just so happen to be accompanied by catchy melodies & memorable production. Hood will be the first to admit that he’s just a kid who wanted something so badly, wasn’t afraid to be vulnerable and did everything he could to get where he wanted to go. He’s real & relatable.
