Rooted in jazz,
fluent in groove

Zachary Biggus has been playing guitar since the age of 11, moving from rock into jazz by his teens and gigging across the Chicagoland area by 16. With a Music Performance degree from Elmhurst University and over 13 years of live performance experience, Zach brings deep harmonic vocabulary and a feel-first approach to everything he plays.

In 2010 he released his debut album Jusqu'à Présent, followed by Earthling — a studio project mixing original jazz compositions with electronic production, recorded entirely in his home studio.

Today Zach performs with Guardians of the Groove, a Chicagoland jazz-funk trio bringing the spirit of Soulive, The Meters, and Grant Green to stages across the region. He also maintains an active Instagram presence for solo jazz guitar content.
