   About Zach Berkman


This profile was edited with MySpace Support

It seems a long time since I lived down the long road and through the woods in the house where I grew up. And every morning I woke up to the sunrise over the Illinois River. Then I turned sixteen and found out the sun rises nearly as beautiful riding the early morning train as the glow lights up Lake Michigan. I discovered what it meant to play guitar and sing and write, and perhaps played and sang too often and too loud for my aunt and uncle who I lived with at the time. But by 18, I was in New York City where I've been ever since. Now the sunrise is the end to a beautiful night more often than it is the start of a beautiful day, but that doesn't mean I'm not still looking. These songs are fact and fiction, but none are lies. Welcome and thank you for listening.

I’ve uploaded a couple of new songs to my page. They’re some demo recordings from “The Attic Tapes” sessions I recently finished. The new songs are called “Mercy Please” & “Nowhere (Just a Little Bit).” I really hope you like them..keep in mind that they’re just demos though, and let me know what you think. Yours, Saul

Just bought some of your songs on itunes - great stuff!

A suggestion?... It would be awesome if you had some songs on playlist.com so we can have you playing on our profiles. (I for one grew tired using myspace's player... I'm sure there are others too.)

Love your album cover btw.

"Outside the window, a large tree sways in the gentle breeze of the night. The moon adorned in all her glory, shining down casting shadows on the lawn. Watching over the night, keeping us safe in our dreams; binding us together through the distance between us." There are bonds between people that are created without ever meeting them. There are influences in our lives from people we will never meet. I know I have been held in hearts unknown to me... and I just wanted to let you know.. that you are held in my heart also...
