Sliding it right into the repertoire. Zach Bryan’s personal life, meaning his former relationship with Barstool Sports personality, Brianna Chickenfry, may have captured a lot of headlines this week, but despite that circus, the man continues to keep his head down and release new music. Yesterday, ahead of back to back to back shows at New Jersey’s Met Life Stadium, home of the New York Giants and the New York Jets, Zach dropped an unreleased fan favorite, “Madeline,” along with the release date for his previously announced project, With Heaven On Top. Of course, fans were immediately outraged that it was set to come out on January 9th of 2026, especially after Zach said it would be coming “sooner than not.” But for the new single, “Madeline,” Zach Bryan called on Gabriella Rose, the viral voice behind “Doublewide.” Combining Rose’s soft and airy voice with Bryan’s rasp creates a stellar compliment to each other. And while the lyrics are actually quite heartbreaking, the sound almost offers a glimmer of optimism, a welcome juxtaposition. But Zach wasted no timing brining it into the live show, performing it pretty early in the setlist: Zach Bryan Unveils Part Of The Tracklist Following his run of shows in Ireland and England, Zach Bryan released a Streets Of London EP featuring the title track, as well as two more songs, “River Washed Hair” and “Song for You.” ZB decided to release a few other tunes because he loved them and wanted fans to enjoy them, but he felt like they did not have a home on any upcoming projects he is working on. “They are kind of just tunes that didn’t belong on the record, and they didn’t fit on an EP either. So I’m just releasing them into the world because I love them. Hope you guys enjoy them. I love one of ya! Even the folks who talked mad s*** all year.” But then he went on to reveal some of the songs that will be on the next album, and a few that won’t make the cut… “The songs I’m releasing are ‘River Washed Hair’ and ‘Streets Of London.’ Songs like ‘Dreams,’ ‘Madeline,’ ‘Plastic Cigarette,’ ‘Bowery,’ and ‘Rockaway’ will all be on the record. I’m working on making it special so everyone just f****** chill for a sec. ‘Runny Eggs,’ ‘Skin,’ ‘Savior Complex,’ and a s*** load more that no one’s ever heard are on it!  Just been living well and writing often. It’ll be here when it’s here! Some of us prefer to write our own records.” Last year Zach promised fans the EP, and then also revealed that his upcoming album would be called Motorbreath. Given the fact that Zach has since reupped with Warner, it’s unclear right now if With Heaven On Top will be an actual full-length album or an EP as previously announced. All of that being said, there’s a lot to be excited about for Zach Bryan fans. And I know Zach’s become one of the biggest acts in all of music and that it’s “cool” to hate on Zach right now, but for my money, he’s still one of the most compelling acts in the business. Introspective songwriting that he still does all himself, minimal production, no bells and whistles… just a group of friends making music that connects with the people around the world on a massive scale. I think it’s pretty cool what he’s been able to accomplish for someone who was in Navy just releasing songs he recorded on a cellphone. No radio, no mainstream firepower, just a man with some songs that have captured the hearts of people around the world. Personally, I couldn’t care less about his personal life… I’m excited for this next chapter of tunes. Godspeed ol’ son… we’re waiting. Zach Bryan 2025 Confirmed Tour Dates Zach hasn’t toured much at all this year, compared to the kind of run he has been on the past couple years, so go see him if you get the chance… the crowds are only getting bigger, and it seems like he has a good chance to break George Strait’s recently set record for the largest ticketed concert crowd in United States history when he plays the Big House in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
