An underground, homegrown experimental artist.
Zachary Mezzo is an experimental violinist and composer from New York. His work focuses on the physicality and vulnerability of performance, blending elements of ambient, minimalism, chamber music and noise. His debut solo EP Proximity (cmntx records), combines “spine-tingling improvisations” (AnEarful) with electronics that are harsh yet ethereal, and explores the possibilities of contemporary violin playing. Zach is also a member of the rock band Catcher and has performed and recorded with many artists across different genres in the NYC music scene and beyond. He has written for ensembles such as JACK Quartet, Bearthoven Trio, and Unheard-of Ensemble, and is also an active film composer and arranger.
Zachary Mezzo plays experimental and contemporary classical music, blending ambient minimalism, harsh noise, and avant-garde violin textures.
Zachary Mezzo is based in Brooklyn, New York.
