Six of Our Favorite Zach Bryan Songs

Zachary Lane Bryan, aka Zach Bryan, is an American singer-songwriter from Oologah, Oklahoma. Bryan has taken the country music scene by storm since his rise to fame over the last three years.

Zach Bryan was born on April 2, 1996. He hails from a military family, following that legacy at 17 years old when he enlisted and served as an active duty member of the U.S. Navy.

Zach has seen much success in his musical career. So far, he has been nominated for four Grammy Awards, winning one for Best Country Duo/Group Performance with Kacey Musgraves for their smash-hit duet, “I Remember Everything” in 2024. He was also featured in the hit TV show, Yellowstone.

Here are Six of Our Favorite Zach Bryan Songs:

1. “Open the Gate”

As mentioned above, Zach has a close connection to the pro-rodeo world. This song, “Open the Gate,” is inspired by the great Lane Frost!

2. “Oklahoma Smokeshow”

Zach is undoubtedly a skilled songwriter. In “Oklahoma Smokeshow,” he tells the story of a woman who has dreams of leaving, but her small town and love keep her stuck. You don’t get many music videos out of Zach, because he is a true road dog, but this is a cinematic masterpiece.

“Headed South”

The buzz around Zach Bryan actually started back with the release of this track, “Heading South,” from his second studio album, Elizabeth. He posted a raw and sweaty video of him playing while on leave back in 2021. This was his first viral moment!

3. “Something In The Orange”

“Something In The Orange” was the song that began Zach’s journey into being a household name! It was released in 2022 and was the second single from his American Heartbreak album. The music video is a beautiful compilation of fan videos.

4. “Revival”

“Revival” was another song off of his 2020 album Elizabeth. There is not much we can say about this song other than it is his go-to closing song at live shows, and it is truly an experience for those who witness it.

5. “I Remember Everything” feat. Kacey Musgraves

“I Remember Everything” comes from his 2023 self-titled album, and help Zach crossover into mainstream success with support from Kacey Musgraves. At the 66th Annual Grammy Awards (2024), the duet was nominated for “Best Country Song” and took home the award “Best Country Duo/Group Performance.”
