It’s been one helluva week for Zach Bryan. First, the 27 year-old superstar won his first-ever Grammy award for Best Country Duo/Group Performance for his collaboration with Kacey Musgraves on “I Remember Everything.” The very next day (Feb. 5), he released the music video for “Nine Ball,” starring none other than Matthew McConaughey.

Timeless. Riley Green is no stranger to covering 90’s classics. From Sammy Kershaw’s “The Yard,” to Rhett Akins’ “That Ain’t My Truck,” the country superstar consistently pays homage to the legends before him.

Although Chris and LBG got to finish their sets, The King’s was cut short the second night due to lightning in the vicinity, leaving fans frustrated that they paid for a full show but received an hour and a half less time from George compared to the night before.
