Early life

While a student at Ramapo High School, he began making music in his bedroom and later joined a band called the “Foreshadows”. After graduating high school, he attended Colorado College where he graduated in 2018 with a degree in molecular biology.[2][3] Before producing his own music, his first job was as a snowboard instructor at a ski mountain.[4]

He released Breathe containing his breakthrough hit "'Bout It" in December 2016.[5] In 2017, Zucker released Motions, featuring the song "Heavy," which later Blackbear remixed into "Make Daddy Proud" and included on his album Digital Druglord.[6] Zucker and Blackbear later collaborated on the single "talk is overrated" on Zucker's EP Idle. Zucker released stripped. in February 2018, followed by glisten in May 2018. In September 2018, Zucker released summer, which contains the song "comethru." He wrote "comethru" as a response to graduating college in May 2018 and moving back to his childhood home in New Jersey.[7]
2019-present: brent, love is not dying, brent ii and CRUSHER
In 2019, Zucker collaborated with singer Chelsea Cutler on "you were good to me." The song was the lead single of their first collaborative EP brent which was released on April 19th, 2019.
On July 26th, Zucker released "oh, mexico," the lead single for his debut album love is not dying. The subsequent singles "always, i'll care," "not ur friend," and "julia" were released on February 7, 2020, February 28, and March 24 respectively, leading up to the album's release on April 17.[8][9] The album is an autobiographical collection of songs that were recorded in Brooklyn during the second half of 2019.[10] On July 24, he released the single "supercuts". He featured on Claire Rosinkranz's song "Backyard Boy" and "Nothing's The Same" with Alexander 23.[11][12]
On January 15, 2021, Zucker and Cutler released "this is how you fall in love" and they hosted the livestream show brent: live on the internet where they introduced brent ii which was released on February 5.[13][14][15][16] Beginning in June 2021, Zucker released the songs "18" on June 24th, "HONEST" on July 23rd, "Cry with you" on August 20th, and "Therapist" on September 17th as singles for his sophomore album CRUSHER which was released on October 1st, 2021.[17]
Influences
Zucker has cited Blink-182, Jon Bellion, blackbear, Eden, Bon Iver, Mac Miller, and Wet as some of his musical influences.[18]
His music has been described as "a fusion of organic airy beats, lush soundtrack-style soundscapes, and biting Tumblr-worthy lyricism."
Zucker describes himself as a "social introvert”.[19]
