Review: "The 11-year old little drummer boy, Zac, is the real surprise in the band. For a kid this young to be able to handle the beat and keep his brothers in time is something special." (NY Post)

"I don't think I'm that good on the drums, but people tell me I can play, so I'll take their word for it, I guess."

  • Zac is the youngest of the band (but not of their family)
  • The Rowdiest of them all
  • left handed
  • Loves playing in treehouses (what kid doesn't?)
  • Has a different hair style at nearly every appearance (gotta love the MMMBop braids)
  • Does not have a girlfriend
  • Is ready to go on a date if he finds a cool girl

    As quoted in an MTV interview:
    Interviewer: What will you guys do if you hit the top?
    Ike: Have a big party!
    Tay: Jump up and down. *laugh* I don't know.
    Zac: *cracks his knuckles* *relaxing sigh* Get Girlfriends!
    All: *laughs*
    Tay: Ha... G'lost man...

  • Thinks he is too big for his age (what?!)
  • calls Ike "Ikey Poos"
  • likes to chew gum (check out the MMMBop vid... Even when he's in the trash can!)
  • His eyes change color according to what he's wearing (cool)
  • sleeps in T-shirt and boxers
  • likes to wear Tay's favorite shirt (That Maroon Adidas-like shirt)
  • likes to say "I love you man"
  • With his first paycheck, he wanted to get a puppy
  • collects little things from hotels (Soaps, Shampoos, etc..)
  • Broke his nose. He and tay were flinging rocks of a seesaw, and Zac put some rocks on, and Tay, hit the see-saw unexpectantly, and Zac somehow got hit...
  • Zac sleeps in a trundel that pulls out from under the bunk bed they have
  • wrote "Man from Milwaukee" on the side of the road in Albequerqee when the Family Van broke down. He used "Milwaukee" because it sounded better.
  • he likes action movies
  • One time Zac's bass drum rolled away across the stage and the three ran after it. (Picture it now... *he he*)
  • would never wear see-through shorts on stage. To quote Zac, "Are you MAD?" (Tay said he would, as long as they looked cool)
  • While being interviewed by a swedish magazine he kept on turning off the tape recorder (li'l devil)
  • Brothers compare him to Bart Simpson as well as Animal.
  • Before one of their gigs, he got so nervous that he threw up. But Tay and Ike calmed him down and eveything went okay. (*gulp* poor zac!)
  • Thinks fans who scream when they see the bros but then become speechless, when they walk up to them, are weird (well, what do you say? think about it!)
  • He can always make his little brother, Mackenzie, laugh (he can make anybody laugh)
  • He's always hanging off and jumping on Taylor and Isaac
  • Kathy Griffin on Fox After Breakfast refers to him as "hell on wheels."
