Artist Profile: Michael Zuzek
Unless you are based in South Florida like us, summer is soon reaching its conclusion. Most of America is only a month or two away from thicker clothes, pumpkin-flavored everything, and crunchy leaves littering the ground. Upbeat, pop-ish songs of summer, like Sabrina Carpenter’s newly-released “Tears” and the indie-esque “Sally, When The Wine Runs Out” by Role Model, are currently dominating music trends. However, the azure glow of the summer sky will not radiate for much longer; for the classy ladies and gentlemen looking for the perfect soundtrack to accompany that stroll through a tree-lined cobblestone street, look no further than Michael Zuzek.
Based out of Toronto, Canada, Michael Zuzek has two iTunes chart-topping singles to his name in the United Kingdom and over seventeen years of piano experience to his name. His genre of choice is vocal jazz, with 60s and 70s icons of the genre inspiring him to create his inspired yet unique sound. His talents have earned him nearly 30k yearly listeners on Spotify across more than eighty countries in 2024. This is by no means where he plans to stop; Everest, his most recently-released album in August of last year, is only his first. Hits like “Scott’s Song” and “Graystone” are sure to bring immaculate fall vibes to anyone’s playlist they are added to.
