Meet Zechariah Thomas of Raleigh

Today we’d like to introduce you to Zechariah Thomas.

Hi Zechariah , so excited to have you on the platform. So before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
Zechariah Thomas V , born in Alaska and raised in South Carolina, has always been passionate about music. Inspired by legends like Michael Jackson, Ne-Yo, and Rihanna, he found his love for R&B, pop, soul, and choreography early on. He grew in the church and had instant love for Music. Later finding that he had a gift of singing and melodies.

At 19, he moved to New York, Los Angeles, and eventually Atlanta, where he began creating music independently. However, after facing some unforeseen challenges in Atlanta, he returned home, this time to North Carolina, where his parents lived instead of South Carolina.

Soon after, Zechariah joined the military, got married, and started a family. For several years, his focus shifted from music to being a dedicated husband and father to his two young daughters. But now, at 23, with his children growing older and his family supporting his dreams, he’s ready to dive back into his passion.

Zechariah’s time in the military taught him discipline, and now, with a clearer focus, he’s determined to take the crown. Trusting in God’s timing and plan, Zechariah is ready to reclaim his dream of a music career, not for fame, but to create a legacy for his family and show his daughters that anything is possible with faith and hard work.

He’s back, stronger and more focused than ever, and ready to make his mark on the music industry.
