    This week, I welcome Zach Sweetser to the show — a guest star with the Dave Matthews Tribute Band and the man behind the keys. Zach’s musical story starts early, sitting down at the piano at just five years old and spending years immersed in classical music. But everything shifted when he discovered Dave Matthews Band, and more specifically, the sounds and style of Butch Taylor during those early years. That influence opened a new door for Zach, showing him how the piano could stretch, groove, and tell a different kind of story. In this episode, Zach shares his deep love for the early DMB sound and how that connection transformed his fandom into something more — stepping into the music and helping keep those iconic keys alive through tribute.
