Jeremy Zucker announces Academy gig

Singer-songwriter Jeremy Zucker is set to play the Green Room at the Academy in early 2019. Fresh off of his North America and Europe tour supporting Lauv, the New Jersey native will take on Europe during his new tour. Zucker will take to the Dublin stage on 28 February. Tickets go on sale Friday 23 November from Ticketmaster at 10am, starting at €17.50.

Zucker had been quietly carving out his distinct sound from a bedroom in suburban New Jersey, before introducing his sound to the world. A fusion of organic airy beats, lush soundtrack-style soundscapes, and biting tumblr-worthy lyricism, Zucker’s catalog is eclectic: equally care-free and effortless as it is introspectively cathartic. He counts both Jon Bellion and Bon Iver among his primary influences.

The 21 year-old has released many EPs in recent years. 2018 saw the release of glisten, including four track. It's compiled in a such a way that it flows as a narrative up to interpretation.

The single 'all the kids are depressed', an honest look into the growing issue of depression in youth. It features stories of six kids managing life with depression. Zucker wanted to face the issue head on, rather than ducking and diving around the topic. Zucker hopes the track and music video with show young people that they are not alone.
