Zak Trojano is a musician and songwriter from New Hampshire. He grew up in the woods and could usually be found fly fishing, or playing music. His father is a drummer, and after work was for loosening his tie and teaching his son about Ginger Baker and Elvin Jones. Zak gravitated towards the guitar and songwriting, primarily because he found it hard to write songs about girls on a drum set (not for lack of trying). His intricate finger-style technique is rooted in those early rhythms. His heroes are John Prine, Chet Atkins, and Tony Williams. Zak has been performing, recording, and writing music professionally for the last 10 years. He has shared studios and stages with his band Rusty Belle, Chris Smither, Kris Delmhorst, Jeffrey Foucault, Peter Mulvey, and many other wonderful artists. “Zak has a voice that immediately draws you into his sphere of energy. You will laugh, you will cry (maybe), you will remember lines to his wildly pictorial lyrics.” (Big Room House Concerts) “Zak Trojano writes emotionally complex, classic-feeling songs, and sings them like a man.” –Jeffrey Foucault
