Spencer Zahn

Spencer Zahn is a bassist, multi-instrumentalist, and composer. Since moving to New York in the mid-2000s, Spencer has worked as an in-demand sideman and collaborator, touring and recording with artists from across a wide musical spectrum. Zahn’s career as a solo artist began later, around the same time he started playing with like-minded guitarist Dave Harrington, in 2015.

Zahn’s first two solo albums, 2018’s People of the Dawn and 2019’s When We Were Brand New, were born out of solitary synth experiments, melding his jazz background with a warm electronic pulse. His new album Sunday Painter, released in September 2020, is a refined step forward for the New York City-based musician — a lush collection of instrumental songs that undulate along waves of jazz, ambient pop, Americana, and neo-classical.
