The San Francisco native released his first full-length album ‘Generationwhy’ in 2016 and premiered it at Coachella. ZHU has gone on to release multiple hits, another album titled, ‘Ringos Desert,’ and perform at some of the biggest festivals worldwide.

ZHU’s Musical Chairs Mixtape features seven of his brand new songs with a mix of artists, moods, and genres making this compilation extremely unique. Featuring artists like Elderbrook on the track “Unbothered,” along with other features like Mr. Carmack, Channel Tres, Kiko Franco, Boy Matthews, partywithray, Phil Scully, Bava, sillygirlcarmen, Rush Davis, JADED, Mitch Bell, and Aaron Leibowitz.
