Zach Bryan once release a surprise live album on Christmas Day. So for his next long-awaited studio album, why not keep the tradition of holiday drops alive? “The Great American Bar Scene,” a new release Bryan has been teasing for a while, now has a release date — the 4th of July.
The singer-songwriter made the announcement via a social media post Thursday evening. He offered the date for the album release at the end of a graphic that went into his plan to offer 23 bars across the country early access to some of the album tracks. Those bars will be getting the early Bryan music June 24, 10 days ahead of the album launch.
“The Great American Bar Scene” stands a chance to be one of the bigger album releases of 2024, given Bryan’s recent track record. His previous two studio albums are both still in the top 20 of the Billboard 200 album chart, even though one of them is more than two years old now. His blockbuster breakout, 2022’s “American Heartbreak,” has remained in the upper ranks of the chart for 108 weeks so far. His followup to that success, the self-titled “Zach Bryan,” came out 10 months ago and racked up 200,000 album equivalent units in its first week. Those two releases currently stand at No. 15 and No. 12, respectively.
