Zez Confrey nacque a Peru, nell'Illinois, l'ultimo dei figli di Thomas e Margaret Confrey. Dopo la prima guerra mondiale divenne pianista e arrangiatore per la compagnia di rulli di pianola QRS. La sua composizione Kitten on the keys (1921), che divenne una vera e propria "Hit" dell'epoca, gli fu ispirata nel vedere il gatto della nonna camminare sulla tastiera del pianoforte. Dopo il 1920 scrisse per le jazz band. Si ritirò dalle scene dopo il secondo conflitto mondiale e continuò a comporre saltuariamente fino agli anni 1960.
