Citizen Zero is an American hard rock band from Detroit, Michigan. The band was founded in Rochester Hills in 2010 by Greg Dudley (bass), John Dudley (drums), Matt Dudley (guitar) and vocalist Josh LeMay (FMR Mayyle).

Citizen Zero's eponymous debut EP was recorded in 2011 at Rustbelt Studios, in collaboration with Kid Rock's recording engineer Al Sutton. In 2012, the band recruited guitarist Sammy Boller, following the death of Matt Dudley amidst the production of their second EP, Life Explodes. In 2016, Citizen Zero secured a deal with Wind-Up Records and released debut studio album, State of Mind. Their debut single "Go (Let Me Save You)" peaked at #17 on the mainstream rock chart.
