Zachary's new EP just dropped on October 23, 2020 and it is something special. It is a mixture of pop and worship music. This style is completely different from his first project which was strictly contemporary, but Zachary believes it is a great change. Expectations is a 5 track EP with 3 pop songs and 2 worship songs. Zachary tried to relate with more than just his Christian audience base with this project. He believes his pop songs can hit home with anyone that listened to them. Even his worship songs on this record can bring hope to all who listen especially his song The God Who Makes a Way. He knows Jesus has great plans for him and his music, that's why he has high expectations in life.

What You Need To Know Zachary Taylor Ochsner is from the small town of Bluffton, Indiana, but that doesn't mean God can't use him. He believes God has big plans for him and his music, as Jeremiah 29:11 says. Zachary is willing to say things in his music that people might not like at first but will be able to understand if they are listening with open hearts and open ears.

Spiritual Highlight Every song is full of spiritual highlights. “Expectations” shares that Zachary knows Jesus has great plans for him and his music, which defines his high expectations in life. We all have high expectations in our own lives, and we just have to trust in God’s plan to lead us.
Best Song “Two-Faced” is my personal favorite due to its catchy lyrics and great sound.
