December 21, 2016
Zach Hurd is a Maine native who has been residing in Los Angeles. Originally, much more of an Indie Folk singer, Hurd has been re-honing his craft for glitchy, soulful, pop-infused sounds on the sunny Southern California coast. During a 7 year stint in Brooklyn, Hurdβs 2013 EP, She Never Sleeps, won βBest Pop EPβ in the Independent Music Awards. He continued to broaden his audience through captivating performances and by blurring the lines between folk, soul, pop and Americana. After a successful Kickstarter campaign, Hurd released the vivid and enchanting album, “A Million Little Lights.β
His most recent EP, titled The EP, is available on BandCamp, but itβs his newest release of the brand new single, βSafe,β that has caught peopleβs attention. Bay Ledges dropped the single on Soundcloud and Spotify, with little to no press or fore-warning. Needless to say, βSafeβ has quickly amassed over 700K plays. It was added to Spotifyβs βFresh Findsβ and later, βBest of Fresh Findsβ and even crawled its way to hit #3 on Spotifyβs Viral Top 50. I think itβs βSafeβ to say something is in the works from this mysterious and talented LA pop singer. Keep track of him on Facebook and Instagram to stay up to date. Iβm afraid it may be your only way to find out he dropped a new track.
