ZAC'S 8TH APRIL REDDIT AMA
Hey man, are you ok? Hello! I'm ok now yeah, thanks. How are you?
Isaac, what's the most recent picture in your phone camera roll? Embarrassingly it's a selfie. Not a flattering one though, a stupid one of me drinking Joe's last beer. Sorry bro.
How is Joe? Joe's great, man. Best friend a guy could ask for. He's just built a studio in New Mexico and we're all going down there for a love in, can't wait to get the boys back together.
Who did your addiction hit hardest? Other than yourself, obviously. Fuck, that's a hard one. Obviously it was really difficult for my mom, since no one wants to see their child go through anything like that. It hurt my wife, since it led to me cheating on her, it hurt my girlfriend, since she had to deal with me, it hurt Joe, since he had to kick me out of the band. If I was really pushed I'd say it hurt my mom the most, with Joe as a close second.
Did you and Alessia break up? What happened? We did. I'm sorry for this really boring response, but we drifted. Actually, I'll be honest. The whole time we were together I was an addict, an increasingly severe addict, and when I came out of rehab clean I was basically a different person. We tried to keep going but didn't find our feet, we'd lost our rhythm.
Do you think Alessia enabled your addiction at all? Oh god no. Ale's young, she maybe could have been more aggressively anti it, but I'm a grown man. I was gonna do what I was gonna do.
Alessia or Chloe? Oh fuck, did I say ask me anything? ... Chloe. We were married for a reason.
How was rehab? It was hell on earth. I'm very grateful to everyone who helped me but I wouldn't wish that on anyone.
Good to see you doing better Zac. I had tickets to see you not long ago and you cancelled last minute, but no hard feelings... I have to ask though, how did you really feel about the age difference between you and Alessia? I can't say I didn't think about it, it wasn't wholly comfortable. All I can say is she's older than her years and I was smacked off my face most of the time. I'm really sorry about the gig, though. Promise it won't happen again, I'm really embarrassed by how many people I let down.
Do you still love Chloe? So much.
Do you miss heroin? Fuck yeah.
Hope you stay clean brother. How has getting clean changed your life? It got me my friends and family back, though it weirdly cost me my girlfriend. It's also been quite bad for my anxiety. It makes me bad at parties, since I don't drink much and I'm not even supposed to smoke. I'm a lot more boring, but a lot more reliable too.
Has being a young divorcee changed your perspective on marriage? Mostly no. I have no regrets about marrying Chloe when I did, I really believed she was the love of my life and we spent many happy years together. If I felt that way about someone else I'd like to think I wouldn't hesitate to pop the question, but I've not felt that way since so I can't say for definite.
Can we expect a new album soon? Honest answer? It depends on how shit I am. I'm hoping yes.
What's something no one knows about you? I'm double jointed.
I'm gonna be honest, I think what you did to your wife was extremely shitty. Did you do it for the fame? Was it worth it? I do too. Contrary to how I'm sure it seems, I really cared about Alessia, I think the fact we were together for so long after I got divorced stands to the fact it wasn't just a publicity stunt. I never wanted to publicly embarrass Chloe, and if I have any desire to be famous (if I do, it's minor) then I'd want to be famous for my music and that alone.
Are you single? Yep! First time since I was a teenager haha. Keep an eye out on Tinder.
