The fire-and-brimstone edge of “Burn It Down” does the song’s title justice. Zeiders‘ powerful voice and raw guitar ignite as he makes a choice to quit running and raze it all to the ground. “I’d bet everything there’s a lot of folks like me, cutting off the puppet strings and breaking out the gasoline,”Zeiders howls. “But once you strike that match, there ain’t turning back.”
Armed with striking songwriting and a one-in-a-million voice, Zeiders has earned comparisons to artists like Tyler Childers and Jason Isbell for his original work. It’s no surprise he’s inspired a massive social media following, garnering over 500 million views on TikTok alone. Check out Zeiders’ debut 717 Tapes EP, featuring all original songs, right HERE.
