ZEALE’s approach stands out in collaborations with artists like MISSIO, Awolnation, Blue October, Black Pistol Fire, Spencer Ludwig and more.

There they created the foundation of Blackillac and then began collaborating with artists and producers across the country to release music monthly and launch a tour in 2019 that included festivals like ACL Music Festival, Summerfest, Capitol Hill Block Party, Fortress Festival and more. Blackillac is now preparing to lift the veil on their debut album including long-awaited songs with their partner and friend Gary Clark Jr. ZEALE is expected to release more solo collaborations.
