Michael Zuzek

The upcoming roar of a newfound pop-rock powerhouse has been carefully crafted by Michael Zuzek, who not only knows how to play the keys of the piano but of your heart—influenced by the playing style of Burton Cummings who carefully fronted an iconic sound for The Guess Who and the syncopated melodies of ragtime piano that elevated 50’s and 60’s music. Aspiring to the iconic band The Beatles, who have contributed to not only the sound of songs but also the vocal intensity found in Zuzek's talent. With combined inspiration from The Zombies’ alluring melodies and The Band’s very own, Garth Hudson, who specialized in abstracting sound from the organ, Zuzek has successfully reimagined the sound of the 60’s and 70’s. Born in the heart of Toronto, Zuzek spent most of his childhood surrounded by his family and creating friendships that would last a lifetime. But most of his time was consumed by the growing relationship he was developing with music. Michael discovered his calling for the piano at the young age of 5, where he began lessons and furthered his development with the keyboard family. The piano was only an introduction to what his musical career would hold, as he wrote and produced the musical soundtrack for the film, Ulysses, where he transformed the cinematic intensity into sound. Zuzek aspired to greater heights as his love of music grew and he developed invaluable skills that he would use to start his biggest journey yet: 'Everest'. Zuzek's massive aspirations to recreate the music of the 60s using instruments and sounds reminiscent of that iconic bygone era would not stop there. He furthered his knowledge of music production and songwriting over years of personal commitment and promised to not just use '60s sounds, but songwriting and production methods pioneered by his idols. Come August 2nd, 2024, Michael made his dream a reality and released 'Everest' to the world. With raving reviews from fans and pundits alike, Michael's journey has not stopped at this mountain top, and fortunately enough he is still climbing.
