ABOUT ZAC GRIFFITH:
Zac Griffith was still a youngster when he first picked up a guitar – and then taught himself to play. Growing up in rural Tapawera, the Johnny Cash film Walk The Line was all he needed to discover his calling in music.
From playing in pubs while still in school to taking to stages on both sides of the Tasman, he\u2019s been performing live for over a decade and honing his craft along the way. His journey took a pivotal turn in 2018 when he won a scholarship to attend an esteemed country music academy in Tamworth \u2013 the most influential spot in Australia for country music. This is where he learnt the craft of songwriting, and has since been pursuing.
But he\u2019s not some manufactured country star; he\u2019s a genuine, down-to-earth country boy who splits his time between hunting, fishing, and working at a local bakery when he’s not crafting songs or commanding stages. And while his influences are vast, his sound remains distinctly his own.
Recently he\u2019s been spending time gracing stages around Aotearoa and writing a bunch of new music, both solo and with collaborators. His 2025 single, \u2018Midnights In Georgia\u2019, talks to the story of a struggling musician and the hard times faced along their journey, and was a fan-favourite when he opened for Kaylee Bell across the South Island. On top of that he\u2019s won numerous music awards, including being crowned the overall winner at the prestigious NZ Gold Guitar Awards.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
