Always looking to break the mold, Zack Hemsey is a creator by nature. From composing film score to writing candy companies with suggestive prose on how to improve their products, he has a thirst for things that inspire and move.
Blending the sound of the orchestra with modern elements and ethnic instrumentation, there is a definite intensity in his music. He is perhaps most renowned for his signature sound as the composer / lyricist in the hip-hop collective Nine Leaves.
After releasing two albums under Nine Leaves, his first solo work, entitled "Empty Room," releases May 2010.
Musically, "Empty Room" is a mix of film score, world instrumentation, and hip-hop; while lyrically a blend of storytelling and self-reflection; the album carves for itself a sonically unique identity. Exposing the listener to tragedy and the artist’s own vulnerabilities, this is by far the most emotional album yet from Zack Hemsey. Read more on Last.fm.
