Product Description
Title: The Zac Schulze Gang – Straight To It Format: CD Label: Ruf Barcode: 710347132929
Release Date: November 28th 2025
The Zac Schulze Gang & Ruf Records are proud to announce the release of their debut studio album Straight to It on September 26, 2025 via Ruf Records. The title says it all: raw, blues-infused rock’n’roll with no frills.
Frontman and guitarist Zac Schulze may be a world-class player, but the heart of the band is the trio itself – with brother Ben Schulze on drums and Ant Greenwell on bass. Together they create a huge sound that blends melody and power. Tracks like “The Rocker” and “High Roller” pack a punch, while songs like “Angeline” and “Betterland” show their melodic side.
Formed during the pandemic and inspired by Rory Gallagher, the band quickly earned a reputation as a relentless live act. Playing over 250 shows a year across the UK and Europe, they’ve shared stages with Samantha Fish, Eddie 9V, and even performed at Eric Clapton’s Crossroads Festival in 2023. Their releases of the EP Made of Three (2023) and Live and Loud (2024) helped them win Best Emerging Blues Band at the UK Blues Awards 2024, followed by Young Artist of the Year in 2025.
Produced by Ian Sadler, Straight to It captures a band on the verge of breaking out – fierce, dynamic, and very much of the now.
