Zach Bryan Will Release “Dear Miss” If The Eagles Win The Super Bowl
Guess the Zach Bryan fans are rooting for the Philadelphia Eagles once again this weekend...
Late last night on Instagram, he shared a post saying that he is planning to release another new song called "Dear Miss" if they win the Super Bowl on Sunday, which comes on the heels of him putting out “Blue Jean Baby” after they won the NFC Championship a couple weeks ago.
He's continued to tease new stuff, and "Dear Miss" is part of the EP he's also already announced called With Heaven On Top, which he previously said would be out "sooner than not," so I have to imagine that's still coming soon even though he's not give an exact date. I kind of thought he might put out the EP if the Eagles won the Super Bowl rather than just one song, but honestly who knows... I guess that's still possible.
Zach shared the post along with a caption saying he'll be in New Orleans for the game, and that he and comedian Shane Gillis might "do a pop up" somewhere this weekend too... so if your in town for the game, keep your head on a swivel:
"IF THE BIRDS WIN THE BOWL 'DEAR MISS' IS OUT THE NEXT DAY SEE YALL IN NOLA SHANE GILLIS N ME MIGHT DO A POP UP N GET ROWDY SOMEWHERE LOVE U GUYS."

Also, on his stories, he shared a lengthy post reflecting on his travels lately, and also explaining why he never wants to do full-on tours anymore. On multiple occasions, Zach has talked about "quitting touring," and he doubled down here:
"Went through photos of our Europe tour last night, was with my friends in LA all week and have songs on the way that mean a lot to me. Been feeling some serious nostalgia all day. No matter where you are or what you're doing in this world right now, I pray you know you're deeply loved and deeply cared about (unless you're an internet bottom feeder). Every day is a journey and if you're not where you want to be it's okay.
Life gets hard and easy and confusing all at once sometimes. Losing people in my life has made me truly realize how rare it is to be breathing. Hug your families and lovers and little kiddos extra tonight. I wanted to quit long tours because I want to feel like a human again. I'm getting back slowly and surely. I want to travel the country coast to coast and the world ocean to ocean. I want to take advantage of the songs that are to come.
I have everyone who has stuck around to thank for it. No idea why I'm writing any of this, but I just wanted to show gratitude to all of my friends and everyone that has stuck around. I love you immensely and laughter is immeasurable. - From the back of an RV with my dog, my cat and with heaven on top. Go Birds. With love from the road."
Life on the road certainly isn't easy, and musician will tell you that, especially at the level he's doing it on, it's a lot and it's hard to constantly be gone from home and out of a normal routine, just to name the basics.
He has a few dates on the schedule for 2025, but I imagine he won't be adding many more based on this:
Zach Bryan Tour Dates
Like I said, Zach’s tour schedule is expected to be very limited this year compared to last year, and so far he only has a few shows for 2025. The Oklahoma native sold out three nights at MetLife Stadium with the Kings of Leon as his supporting act, and he recently announced that he will head to the west coast as well. On August 15th, Zach Bryan will perform with the Kings of Leon, Turnpike Troubadours and Noeline Hofmann at San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park.
