Zachary Laudor is a North Jersey - Based Professional Musician and Performer who’s specialty is the bass guitar.

Zach’s connection to the arts is in his blood, with his parents meeting in theater and bringing him to shows before he even had conscious memory. Zach’s professional music career started just at the age of 13, having spent a few years in Mount Olive School District’s “Rock and Roll Academy” ensemble programs, he was called for gigs by a family friend and soon became a mainstay on the bass in that project. Zach spent 6th-12th grade in the same program at school, and in the midst of this was part of the locally famous band known as “Lunch” who have since disbanded.

During his time at Mount Olive High School, he participated in every possible musical involvement, and through the aforementioned “Rock and Roll Academy” had the pleasure of playing at Metlife Stadium with Musicwill, and at NJSBA’s annual convention in Atlantic City. He was also a member of the Tri-M Music Honors Society.

In addition to Rock and Roll Academy, Zach had many other musical endeavors, one of which was playing bass in the school’s production of ‘Rock of Ages’ and portraying the musical’s on-stage bass player. This particular ensemble was nominated for “Best Overall Production” and “Best Pit Orchestra” as well as awards in 9 other categories at Papermill Playhouse’s 2024 Rising Star Awards. Zach played bass in the school’s televised performance to open the awards ceremony. Zach’s involvement with the theater department didn't stop there, as in 2025 Zach played the bass guitar for the entirety of the school’s production of “The Prom.” In the Spring of that same school year, he transitioned to the stage and landed a leading role in “Grease.”

Zach’s stint in “Lunch” is what he refers to as “The most impactful part of my music career.” The group played almost every community event under the sun, performed their own sets at the “Rock and Roll Academy” concerts, and even had two sold-out headlining performances at the legendary “Stanhope House.” Aside from this, they were frequent acts for breweries and restaurants all around New Jersey.

Zach also spent a year at Rider University and did a field study in Nashville, Tennessee where he got to interact and connect with music industry professionals in every subdivision of the art form.

Currently, Zach is working towards an A.A. degree in Music Recording and is also an on-call gigging musician. He is extremely ecstatic to be a part of the family at the Amp and to share his expertise with anybody he comes across!
