Ezra Kruzich is a multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, writer, and educator based in Boston, Massachusetts. Raised among the rivers and forests of Maine, Ezra’s path has always followed the interplay between structure and soul—between discipline and intuition. His work bridges music, neuroscience, and education, forming a body of practice rooted in emergence, creativity, and conscious design.

As a PhD student in Neuroscience at Boston University School of Medicine, Ezra researches the neuropharmacology of psychedelics, focusing on their therapeutic potential in treating anxiety and depression. His work combines cellular imaging, behavioral analysis, and philosophical inquiry, contributing to a growing body of science exploring how altered states can reorganize the brain and restore mental health. His research is complemented by his role as a research affiliate at the MIT Spatial Sound Lab, where he explores spatial audio and immersive sound for healing and creative applications.

Parallel to his academic work, Ezra has built a life in music. A lifelong student of sound, he trained in classical voice at the Portland Conservatory of Music, studied jazz piano and theory at the University of Southern Maine, and later pursued composition, arranging, and performance across Lindenwood University and the University of Missouri–St. Louis. He has performed professionally for over a decade—from solo sets and collaborative bands to sacred ceremonies and genre-bending studio sessions.

In 2022, Ezra launched EZZY, a musical project and creative identity drawing from neo-soul, folk, jazz, and alt-R&B. The project reflects not only his sound but his philosophy: music as emergence, rooted in recursion, emotion, and presence. EZZY blends loop-based performance with live vocals and instrumentation, offering audiences an experience that is at once intentional and improvisational.

Beyond performance and research, Ezra is a passionate educator. He taught piano, voice, and guitar at Guitar Center for over eight years, and has tutored STEM subjects ranging from organic chemistry to microbiology. He has led systems physiology labs at Boston University, and now serves as Professor of Anatomy & Physiology at Berklee College of Music. There, he teaches pre-medical and music students alike—offering a class that explores the structure and function of the human body through the lens of movement, rhythm, and embodiment. His goal: to make science feel as alive and accessible as a rock show.

At the heart of it all, Ezra is committed to one idea: that coherence across disciplines is not only possible, but necessary—that music, science, and spirit are not separate domains, but different entry points into the same unfolding system.
