Single
"Who Am I Supposed To Tell"
A deeply personal track about the space left behind after loss — starting as an acoustic ballad and evolving into something more expansive, shaped in the studio with Jakob Rush and Linds Cadwell.
Described by Earmilk as a "powerful anthem," this track draws listeners in with heartfelt vocals and a band sound that takes them on an emotional ride from start to finish.
Zac's debut EP — a bold introduction to his singer-songwriter world. Features the live fan-favorite "Timing (Live Medley)" and showcases his band's natural chemistry.
"As Hoina sings of a fading connection, his voice channels universal anxieties about love and loss — a potent reminder of music's ability to transmute personal pain into a shared cathartic experience."

From intimate rooms to festival stages — Zac Hoina brings blues-rooted intensity and genuine songcraft to every performance.

Gavin McLeod
Rock · Blues · Alt-Country · Toronto, ON
A 25-year-old singer-songwriter and guitarist from Milton, Ontario, Gavin McLeod began playing at 10 and has built a reputation as one of Canada's most compelling young rock artists. Signed to Dine Alone Records, his debut full-length The Constant Astonishment blends alt-country, pop rock, and 90s Brit-rock energy. He's performed at Ottawa Bluesfest, the El Mocambo, and the Legendary Horseshoe Tavern — earning nearly 100K YouTube subscribers along the way. Zac and Gavin have written and recorded original tracks together, sharing the room as full collaborators from first idea to finished song.
Seattle-based songwriter and guitarist Jake Laiks has amassed 4,300+ monthly Spotify listeners and nearly 100K Instagram followers through a string of soulful singles including Morning Light, Should, and Where Is the Love? — music that draws comparisons to John Mayer and occupies a warm, introspective space between rock and soul. Jake brought that same depth to Zac's single Strangers, where his presence helped shape one of Zac's most personal releases.
An alternative rock band from Baltimore, Maryland, Delaware Tea Company has been carving out their own niche with thick, woozy indie rock — described as "rollicking, humid, and searching." Their debut live set at Baltimore's Ottobar and their debut single "Empty" have earned them a growing following across the mid-Atlantic region.
With 12,000+ monthly Spotify listeners, eilonwy has carved out a wonderfully distinctive niche in indie-folk — off-kilter, atmospheric, and packed with charm. Her 2021 debut single "they should be terrified of you" turned heads, and subsequent releases like body horror have cemented her as an artist with a genuinely haunting and memorable signature sound.
An indie pop and singer-songwriter from Chicago with 56,000+ monthly Spotify listeners, Kate Stephenson is a self-producing powerhouse — writing, recording, and mixing her own music. Known for candid lyricism and a chameleon-like sound that spans jazz, pop, folk, and rock, she toured nationally with Summer Salt and built a following of 255K+ on TikTok. Her albums Lonely, Growing Up in Reverse, and All Grown Now chart her rapid artistic evolution. Zac co-wrote alongside Kate and delivered the featured guitar solo on her song Don't Go — a highlight of the track.
Zac is available to contribute guitar to your project — from rock and blues to soul and folk. If you have a song that needs the right guitar part, get in touch.
