I’m Zach Barocas. I’m a drummer (I play Dream Cymbals and Ludwig Drums), sometime poet (though not lately), a publisher, a somewhat cranky cinephile, an amateur photographer, and a stationery shop owner.
The above photo was taken by Tasha Dahl in the Main Room at First Avenue in Minneapolis during a reunion performance by my band Jawbox in 2019. I don’t look like that most of the time but I think you’d recognize me on the street if it was all you had seen of me.
