Zach Dawes is a native Angeleno who had a love for music and film. After pursuing a degree at University of California Santa Cruz, Dawes returned to Los Angeles and his career took off. At first, his work consisted of working for T Bone Burnett in 2008, playing on sessions and working on film and television projects such as True Detective, Nashville, Inside Llewyn Davis, and The Hunger Games. Eventually, his presence in the music-in-film-world really upticked.
Most recently, Dawes was the music supervisor and co-composer for the critically-acclaimed film The Peanut Butter Falcon, starring Shia LaBeouf and Dakota Johnson. His other recent film project was the score for Big Time Adolescence, starring Pete Davidson, which debuted at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival. In addition to his work as a film composer and music supervisor, Dawes is also a career musician. Around the same time he started working for Burnett, Dawes also co-founded his band, Mini Mansions, with Michael Shuman from Queens of the Stone Age.
Dawes' career in music continued to blossom and today, his wrap sheet is spectacular. Most recently produced and wrote with Lana Del Rey for her latest album, Norman F*cking Rockwell, which is currently nominated for a Grammy award for Album of The Year. It doesn't stop there!
