Early life

[edit]

Originally from Franklin Lakes, New Jersey, Zucker was raised in a musical household with his parents and two older brothers. While a student at Ramapo High School, he began making music in his bedroom and later joined a band called the "Foreshadows". The first song he wrote was about his brother's fear of heights.[2] After graduating high school, they attended Colorado College where he graduated in 2018 with a degree in molecular biology.[3][4] Before producing his own music, his first job was as a snowboard instructor.[5] He is Jewish and is currently married to his wife, influencer Mathilda Lou Roettger.[6]

He released Breathe containing his breakthrough hit "'Bout It" in December 2016.[7] In 2017, Zucker released Motions, featuring the song "Heavy," which later Blackbear remixed into "Make Daddy Proud" and included on their album Digital Druglord.[8] Zucker and Blackbear later collaborated on the single "Talk Is Overrated" on Zucker's EP Idle. Zucker released Stripped in February 2018, followed by Glisten in May 2018. In September 2018, Zucker released Summer, which contains the song "Comethru."
