MORE Indie Invaders / POSTED BY: KINGSOFAR

Look out for Zach Hood and the mid tempo track I Miss My Friends. Although we are only 3 weeks in, the song has become my favorite this year.

The 20-year-old Alabama artist has quietly garnered 70+ million streams across his first six singles, landed on Spotify’s Pop Rising, Radar US & and held a spot on the Global Viral 50 chart.

Zach says, “I definitely feel like this is one of my most relatable songs yet – if not my most relatable – because kids my age are all going off to college and different places typically away from what they know. It’s one that really hits home for me,” Hood explained. “I not only had to go straight from high school into the real world, but I had to do it in Los Angeles – one of the strangest & loneliest cities in the world because virtually everyone is trying to ‘make it.’ I miss my friends, I miss home. It’s that simple.”
