Never in his wildest dreams did Zach Williams think that he would be in this place of writing and recording music in the Christian music industry, especially from years of hard living on the road while in a rock & roll band. He thought his life was fulfilling and he was doing what he had always wanted to do, but that left him empty, lonely, and further away from God and his family than ever before. For years he sought meaning and fulfillment in the unhealthy, and sometimes dangerous, lifestyle he was living. He eventually found refuge in a fellow band mate, thanks to their countless late nights on the road talking about God, faith and what their lives could actually be like beyond the band. “Even though I grew up going to church every Sunday as a kid, even though I knew right from wrong and said I was a Christian, there was absolutely nothing about the way I was living that reflected these things,” Williams shares. “It took a trip to Europe in 2012 to stop me dead in my tracks and show me just how lost I really was.” That year, with his wife by his side, his faith became real to him and he found renewal by dedicating his life to Christ. He hasn’t looked back since.
Atypical of trying to fit in a genre, Hohn is the kind of artist that writes about the entirety of his human experience. His radio-esque anthem (A Different Story) speaks of redemption from a rebel to a saint, while he embraces his inner Ed Sheeran in his love song to his wife (Keep Dancing). In (Home Sweet Heaven) he belts over Switchfoot-like guitars about riding in trucks and getting hurt as a kid during his treasured golden youth. Still, mixed somewhere between the grit and radio polish, he displays his depth in (Bless the heart of God), a simple and timeless song of vertical praise to God.
