About this listen

Zach Russell joins The Songwriter to talk self‑reliance, presence, and protecting the soul of a song. From small orchards to Sinatra, from leaving three‑hour bar gigs to writing without a guitar, Zach shares a grounded approach to craft and life—then closes with a brand‑new performance about manna, heaven, and enough.

Key Topics

  • Self‑support, gardens, and taking a little power back
  • Why he sometimes writes with no guitar in hand
  • 60s/70s French pop and classic standards as unexpected guides
  • Venue choices, vulnerability, and honest exchanges with audiences

Featured Performance

New original song (live)

Ideal for fans of John Moreland, Jason Isbell, and reflective Americana.
