The Future Was Disappointing

Encouraged by the success and reception of Hello Stranger, Zachary’s debut, this follow up is braver, more dynamic and much more fun. It was recorded with a tight band of sensational Dutch session musicians over the course of just one week, a throwback to a golden age of production. It maintains the smooth, laid back feel of his previous work but turns up the tempo and funk dials. From the cosmic, disco groove of ‘Overthink It’ to the jazz infused “Never The Right Time’ via funk, bossa, heartbreaking ballads and seventies soft rock, this album is both varied and thematic, loaded with imagery of space, the universe and nostalgia.
