So you might ask, how did Zach Bryan get famous? And how did he do it so quickly? This may be an easy
question to ask, but in reality, Zach's been working at his craft for a long
time. I dive into some of his career highlights, but mostly his recent addition,
American Heartbreak.
Take a look at ‪@GradySmith‬'s channel and original interview he had with Zach! He's one of the inspirations of why I started my channel!

You rock Zach, been listening for awhile. 1st time hearing you was through my son just before he joined the Marines several years ago.

@hewassuchaniceguy.7453 Год назад

His songs transcend the human condition. Anybody, and I mean anybody, can relate to his lyrics. Incredible and has helped me through tough times in the past few yrs. I'll always be grateful to him

@thewesternside Год назад

That’s awesome. I totally agree. Thanks for sharing that!

@SI-Hobbs 3 месяца назад

My brother served with him in the Navy as an AME (he's still in, otherwise I'd say his name), and said he was always talking about music and was a good guy. I'm glad to see that he's made it far.

@TheyWantUSilent Год назад

The fact that I'm not a big fan of country at all, but I consider him one of my favorite artists speaks volumes to his incredible talent. His songwriting is astounding and captivating.

@thewesternside Год назад

That’s really cool you say that because all throughout my teenage years I didn’t really view modern country music as something to be appreciated, but guys like him and some others are really changing the game and making people get into the world of what country music really is!

@lukehuber5032 Год назад

I just saw him last week in Minneapolis. By far best concert I have ever been to!!!

@thewesternside Год назад

That’s so awesome dude!! He came to my city but I couldn’t go 🥲

Nice analysis my man. Zach is so unique and loved by so many, yet so many don’t even know of him yet. The best is yet to come.

I grew up in Kellyville, Oklahoma. can't tell u how much I felt his songs. ironically, my best friend growing up had the same exact name. it's 2023. I'm late as hell but glad I finally listened. Love yall

@thomasmmoney4525 Год назад

I found him 3 yrs ago on RU-vid doing his songs by himself and I've been one of the biggest Metal heads and Rock-n-Roll guy my whole life but This Guy made me rethink my whole musicality ....Keep Pumping out your music its the only thing that's been touching my Soul and keeping me going since my Father died 3yrs ago.Thank you Zach you are changing lives with your music

@colbyfarrington3649 Год назад

I found him about two years ago and now he’s huge. I’m not a believer in god but I love his use of his own beliefs in his music. The best for me from him is codine-dark and the rawer older stuff. But he’s making great tunes non stop.

@thomasmmoney4525 Год назад

@@colbyfarrington3649 he has written zero bad songs and can do no wrong in my ears and eyes ...he's true to his music and it shines thru

@brentowen2225 Год назад

I found Zack on RU-vid one night in April 2019. Back then I couldn’t have imagined how much he’d blown up to now. I remember, back then, trying to explain to all my friends just how good this guys songs were😂. He has a way of captivating people with his writing that not very many have. It’s really amazing.

That’s cool dude, I was late to the scene!! Hahaha. He really does though! Thanks for watching!

@christinecanty5409 14 часов назад

Not many artists have the ability to make their audience feel every word. ZB sings his truth so genuinely that it spills over to you and me and all at once we’re all sharing the same experience. Music is something else. Thank God for it.

I found Zach when I was traveling across the country to move to Los Angeles from a small town in Central Pennsylvania. Something in the Orange was going viral all over TikTok and I listened to it on repeat the whole trip. Decided to dive in to his music head first and I can comfortably say, he is the best and realest artist out there right now. I can't wait for his new album next week. My favorite songs right now are Dark and Codeine Pills

@MrJcwack Год назад

I've been a fan since his first album and it's so surreal to see how big he's gotten and how far he's come. His songwriting is truly generational and I knew the man just needed a shot to headline and the people would come and boy has he arrived! Zach's number 1 fan until my last breath. Thank you for sharing his journey!

Before you even said Johnny Cash, I already thought it, soon as you said navy. The way you told his story reminded me of him. It's like if JC was an artist of our times. It's great that country music is getting into the main again-it's one of the genres I've been into since I was a kid, but I haven't discovered and appreciated any new artists since probably Brandi Carlile. It's a great inspiration as well as an aspiring folksinger myself, that this kind of music can still come back. Thanks for the introduction, man! Will look forward to your next vids. Cheers!
