BEFORE ZAC BROWN WAS “THE ZAC BROWN” BEFORE THE MULTIPLE GRAMMY AWARDS, before the Billboard number-one albums and the record-breaking concert attendance 3⁄43⁄4 with tens of thousands of fans on their feet 3⁄43⁄4 he was a Georgia kid spending every summer at camp. Late at night, when the other kids were in their cabins, Zac would watch, enraptured, as the counselors around the campfire played their guitars, strumming, improving, and letting the music flow. He himself was being classically trained, so this kind of informal creativity felt new to him. He decided to join in, and began to play with nothing specific in mind. Inspiration sparked 3⁄43⁄4 and nothing was ever the same. Summer camp changed Zac’s life forever. At 14, he told his parents, “Someday, I’m going to build my own camp.”
