Zach has been a buddy of mine since he was about 8 yrs old. I watched him grow up in the Pacific Northwest bluegrass community. Picked a bunch with him. He has a great family too.

Been playin' guitar in country bands and other stuff too for over 50 years and this young man is definitely turning some heads including mine. He gained me as a fan after the first time I heard him. Love the direction of his music. Exactly what country music needs right now. He can rip on an electric as well!

Zach often plays a Brent Mason signature Tele live, and MAN does he do it justice. Dude can shred and has a killer voice on top. He also kills it covering Tony Rice's Freeborn Man, which that alone should tell you all you need to know about his level of talent.

Zach top is amazing got a chance to see him live in town and put on one of the best shows in awhile it was small and glad I found him early because he has just sky rocketed up in popularity! You should also check out the band he was in before when he was only 16 or 17 I believe it was a small bluegrass band with only one album! But I really think he’s the best out right now and still can’t believe I got a chance to see him live and actually meet him and shake his hand before he blew up like this! Every single one of his songs are amazing

Saw Zach at the Bluebird in Nashville last year. The real deal. Really nice guy, stardom had not hit him and he was respectful and thankful to anyone who came up to him afterwards. He is the total package and the playing is in large due to his bluegrass upbringing. Really surprised it's taking so long for him to get star traction.
@xanderallen56873 ай бұрын
Unsurprisingly, he’s produced by Keith Whitley’s former band leader/steel player…former Alan Jackson touring manager…Carson Chamberlain. His album is full of 90’s powerhouse writers…including a couple good friends of mine, Tim Nichols and Wyatt McCubbin…with the latter being a younger writer with an old soul who was also brought along by Chamberlain. The first video I ever seen from Zach I knew he was bound for stardom…so long as the market supported him…which I’m thankful to say they have.
