Levi was born in Lake Charles, Louisiana, the son of Susan and Darrell Pugh. He is of Welsh ancestry. When Levi was a child, his family moved across several states before finally heading back to their home in Ventura, California, where he attended Buena High School for four years. He began acting on stage at the age of six, performing lead roles in regional productions such as Grease, The Outsiders, Oklahoma!, Oliver!, The Wizard of Oz, and Big River at the Ojai Art Center. He chose his middle name as his stage name because his agent told him that "a guy named Zach Pugh would not be going far in Hollywood".
Career
Acting
Levi first appeared in the FX television movie Big Shot: Confessions of a Campus Bookie. He played Kipp Steadman on the ABC sitcom Less than Perfect. He also portrayed a potential boyfriend of Charisma Carpenter's character, Jane, in the ABC Family television movieSee Jane Date. Levi was slated to be a lead in an ABC pilot called Three for the 2004/2005 television season, but the show was not picked up.
In the 1990s Cochrane took his family to West Africa, where he helped to raise awareness and money for the World Vision famine relief organization. That experience shaped his next album Mad Mad World which contained "Life Is a Highway". Places mentioned in the song are Mozambique, Memphis, Khyber Pass, and Vancouver.
The song was Cochrane's only Top 40 hit in the United States.
Charts
Music video
The original video for "Life Is a Highway" was produced by Albert Botha who went on to line produce two films for Saturday Night Live, Superstar starring Molly Shannon and The Ladies Man starring Tim Meadows. The video was shot in Alberta's Badlands, near the city of Drumheller. Many of the shots are in familiar locations along the Dinosaur Trail, including Cochrane playing guitar amid the Hoodoos and the couple (Brennan Elliot) running around the car while it rides the Bleriot Ferry across the Red Deer River. It also has an older man (gas station attendant), a couple (tall man, short wife), and two women from a religious order. The car which features in the music video is a 1965 Chevrolet Impala Super Sport.
Bill Maher and actor (Shazam!) Zachary Levi on the insanity of cutting off family members at the holidays due to political disagreements, Zach’s vote for Trump and career implications, the importance of talking to the other side, the need for nuanced thinking, legacy media stoking divisions and fear, misinformation and extremism, Zach’s support of RFK Jr., open debate about medical issues, criticizing those who shut down questions as “anti-science,” the vilification of medical skeptics, skepticism or raises questions about medicine, spirituality and God, and finding common ground.

Life's like a road that you travel on When there's one day here and the next day gone Sometimes you bend, sometimes you stand Sometimes you turn your back to the wind There's a world outside every darkened door Where blues won't haunt you anymore Where the brave are free and lovers soar Come ride with me to the distant shore We won't hesitate break down the garden gate There's not much left today Life is a highway I want to ride it all night long If you're going my way I want to drive it all night long Through all the cities and all these towns It's in my blood and it's all around I love you now like I loved you then This is the road and these are the hands From Mozambique to those Memphis nights The Khyber Pass to Vancouver's lights Knock me down get back up again You're in my blood I'm not a lonely man There's no load I can't hold Road so rough this I know I'll bee there when the light comes in Tell 'em we're survivors Life is a highway I want to ride it all night long If you're going my way I want to drive it all night long Life is a highway I want to ride it all night long If you're going my way I want to drive it all night long There was a distance between you and I A misunderstanding once but now We look it in the eye There's no load, I can't hold Road so rough this I know I'll be there when the light comes in Tell 'em we're survivors Life is a highway I want to ride it all night long If you're going my way I want to drive it all night long Life is a highway I want to ride it all night long If you're going my way I want to drive it all night long Life is a highway I want to ride it all night long If you're going my way
