Zac Levine knew when he was 11 years old that he was a nightlife person.
“My dad owned an ad agency in Seattle for the last thirty years, and when I was a kid I had the opportunity to go see the Jingle Bell Bash … backstage,” he says, referring to the long-running December concerts. “Imagine an 11-year-old who has half of a view of backstage, and the other half is the show. That really set a fire under me.”
What started at first as a desire to see shows for free turned into a calling. At fourteen, he started handing out flyers; at nineteen, he started booking talent under the mentorship of Steve Severin at Neumos and Meli Darby, now with Seattle’s Special Events Office.
