Zachary Scott Kline came into my consciousness thanks to an email from Nashville songwriter, Henry Conlon, a former guest on my Tasty Brew Music Radio Show and
Podcast. Zachary’s power trio that included Ray Akers on bass and Sam Hatfield on drums was coming to the
Heartland including playing a show in Lawrence. It was a great honor to host what I believe to be Zachary’s debut radio interview and performance.
Zachary found his way to Americana via competitive football and the San Francisco punk scene. Apparently there is an inside joke that when they turn 30, punk rockers put a cowboy hat on and mutate into something completely different. Really? I duly note Zachary
counts John Prine, Blaze Foley, Ryan Bingham, David Ramirez and Jason Isbell as strong influences. Well done.
I find Zachary’s songcrafting sincere and his lyricism and turn of phrase compelling. Zachary…keep working on that
website...the music loving public at large needs to find you with ease.
Enjoy the debut radio performance and interview of Zachary Scott Kline.
