Frontman Zac's searing guitar work and brooding vocals form the heart of the band's blues-infused style, complemented by Will's groove, James' driving bass, and Oli's high- energy riffs. Their live shows are a must-see experience, with an electric stage presence and a 70's-inspired aesthetic that captivates audiences and encourages mayhem. With national radio play and rave reviews from the press, Zac and The New Men are quickly becoming a favourite among music fans. As Nels Hylton of BBC Radio 1 said, "There's a hugely bright future for these guys, remember the name Zac and The New Men." Their debut album "Reinvent Me," released on May 19th and has been receiving rave reviews from press and critics alike. "We're really proud of how 'Reinvent Me' has turned out," says the band. "We experimented with a lot of different sounds and textures in the production, and we feel like it really represents where we are on our musical journey. We can't wait for people to hear it." There is no doubt that this group of talented young musicians is destined for greatness. With a raw and authentic sound that's impossible to ignore, Zac and The New Men are definitely a band to keep on your radar. DON'T WATCH THE NEWS - "The music is completely convincing. Because these guys don't do things by halves - delivering high-octane sets around the North of England." - Welovethatsound

“Songs with much lyrical content and with some fine guitar playing. Loud. Steady guitar work joined the songs together and Ben the lead singer in his baseball cap nailed the vocals, and although I couldn’t really hear the words I knew they were just what you might expect from a young band who had travelled all the way down from Yorkshire to sleep on peoples floors and play their songs. Don’t Watch The News have some more long journeys to make but it will be worth the sore backs as eventually the goal will be reached.” - Chris Difford of ‘Squeeze’

THE BASEMENT PUPPETS - “A band that makes a rather wonderful sound”
