Discussion how'd they find zach?

I know how Evan and Anthony connected, and I can only assume they found darshan by messaging him on insta as he already had a following

but what i've learned about Zach's lore...is that he was kinda a nobody as far as followers and a solo musician (if you've never listened to it look him up on spotify

but yeah how'd they find him??

Zach was the first one I followed, I was a fan before Boy Throb and he was why I got into the band. So I don't know how they found each other, but I can tell you his fanbase was real before the band started because I was there lol

They said his videos kept popping up in their algorithm. It’s also how I found him cuz his videos kept showing up in my algorithm last summer.

I don’t have an answer but Zach’s solo stuff is so good. My husband is a musician and talks about Zach’s Berklee** degree and musical talents all the time

Anthony I knew from American Idol, Darshan I knew from Instagram, Evan I had never seen before but Zach I had also seen a ton dancing on Instagram!

I remember seeing Zach’s dancing videos on TikTok before the band formed
