[edit]Zambotto grew up on a remote, self-sustaining estate near Manjimup,[4] Western Australia,[1] which helped to develop his musical style and artistic identity. His father is French and he is a dual national of Australia and France.[1] He received his first guitar at the age of 13 and initially writing and producing songs for other artists.[5] Along with music, Zambotto played Australian rules football at a high level throughout his upbringing and competed at the semi-professional level for the East Perth Royals in the West Australian Football League as a teenager[6] before giving away the sport to pursue music full-time and moved to Sydney to focus on his solo career.[7]
