Zach Templar

about the artist
The past year has been a blur for UK-Colombian artist Zach Templar, who's quickly skyrocketed to one of the buzziest names in alternative music all simply from the laptop in his bedroom in Somerset, UK. Writing, recording, and producing all of his songs independently to-date, the self-taught musician's ascent first sparked with 'missin something' — his viral 2023 track that's clocked over 100 million streams on Spotify alone. It's a track that first introduced his woozy, lo-fi pop sound, pastel-tinted guitar work & production chops, and coming-of-age lyricism to the masses.

MoreThe past year has been a blur for UK-Colombian artist Zach Templar, who's quickly skyrocketed to one of the buzziest names in alternative music all simply from the laptop in his bedroom in Somerset, UK. Writing, recording, and producing all of his songs independently to-date, the self-taught musician's ascent first sparked with 'missin something' — his viral 2023 track that's clocked over 100 million streams on Spotify alone. It's a track that first introduced his woozy, lo-fi pop sound, pastel-tinted guitar work & production chops, and coming-of-age lyricism to the masses. A steady cadence of singles since then has continued to captivate audiences around the world to the tune of 1.5 million monthly listeners on Spotify, including his recent singles "roses" and "changes" which Paste Magazine called "translucent beach-pop apt for as many long drives as it is a bubbling club" and Remezcla hailed "lo-fi bedroom aesthetics at their best, from unadorned drums to trippy guitars, studio trickery, and frank, reverb-heavy vocals."
Fresh off a UK headlining tour, his biggest headline show to-date at London's Village Underground, and a highly anticipated set on BBC Radio 1's stage at Reading Festival in summer 2024 — a performance that drew in thousands — Zach recently capped off his first-ever headline North American tour this past fall. The fervent attention has even spread stateside, with numerous shows on the run selling out and Zach's debut Los Angeles show being moved to larger venue months in advance to match demand.
Now, the budding singer-songwriter is wasting no time to begin 2025. It's become clear that the 18-year-old from Somerset continues to gain steam at every turn, having kicked off the year with two new singles in "Give Me Your Heart" and "Desire" as he readies his highly anticipated debut EP for later this spring.
