Malachi Barton was raised by two working musicians
Barton comes from an entertainment family. His mother, Felicia Barton, is a former American Idol contestant, and his father, Loren Barton, works as a guitarist and tour manager, per Variety. Barton has said his parents’ example shaped his own ambitions early. He recalls his father asking him as a kid whether he wanted to be “a creator or a consumer,” a framing that stuck with him.
Before Fletch, Barton built his career on Disney Channel, starring as Beast Diaz in Stuck in the Middle and Colby Madden in The Villains of Valley View, then stepped into the Zombies franchise as Victor in Zombies 4: Dawn of the Vampires. He’s set to reprise that role in the upcoming Zombies 5: Secrets of the Sea.
