A unique story, Zach Bryan has steadily risen to superstar status with the songwriting skill of a classic Americana troubadour and collaborations with a range of incredible artists, paving his own road.
Hailing from Oologah, Oklahoma, he has swiftly risen to become one of the most captivating storytellers and voices of his generation. Starting out while serving in the U.S. Navy, he independently released his debut albums, DeAnn (2019) and Elisabeth (2020), gaining a huge following through his YouTube performances. In 2021, after signing to Warner Records and leaving the Navy, he released the 34-track album American Heartbreak, claiming his rightful place in the music world.
Bryan's breakthrough continued with collaborations alongside Maggie Rogers, Noah Kahan, Bon Iver, and Kacey Musgraves, earning his first U.S. Number 1 single in 2023 with ‘I Remember Everything’ and landing his first Grammy. His music has drawn comparisons to icons like Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson, with critics also noting the influence of Bruce Springsteen.
2023’s self-titled album further established him as a modern-day storyteller, with his July 2024 release, The Great American Bar Scene, blending country, bluegrass, rock, and gospel, cementing him as a Gen Z poet and featuring collaborations with John Mayer and Bruce Springsteen. He has amassed over 21 billion global streams, garnered 31 RIAA Gold and Platinum certifications, multiple Grammy nods, and performed sold-out shows worldwide, including the Burn, Burn, Burn Tour, and the subsequent Quittin Time Tour both which broke several arena and football stadium attendance records. Bryan is now set to take the stage at London’s BST Hyde Park, continuing the legacy of legends who have graced the Great Oak Stage.
BST Hyde Park again brought a hugely diverse range of superstars to the Royal Park in 2024 across three weekends - SZA to Kings of Leon, Morgan Wallen, Andrea Bocelli, Robbie Williams, Shania Twain, Stevie Nicks, Kylie Minogue and Stray Kids.
Zach Bryan joins the first 2025 headliner Jeff Lynne’s ELO. Expect more incredible announcements soon, for the 2025 edition of the UK’s most anticipated summer event.

About Hyde Park:
Every year millions of visitors from London, the UK and across the globe enjoy the iconic Hyde Park, one of the capital’s eight Royal Parks. Spanning 350 acres of green space in central London, Hyde Park has hosted world-renowned music artists since the 1960s. The summer concerts are an essential part of income generation for The Royal Parks, providing necessary funds to maintain and develop the parks for future generations to enjoy. They also help support the diverse culture of London and introduce new audiences to the parks.
About The Royal Parks:
The Royal Parks is the charity which manages, protects and improves the parks in an exemplary and sustainable manner so that everyone, now and in the future, has the opportunity to enjoy their natural and historic environments.
The charity looks after eight of London’s finest open spaces: Hyde Park, Kensington Gardens, St James’s Park, The Green Park, The Regent’s Park and Primrose Hill, Greenwich Park, Richmond Park and Bushy Park. It also manages other important open spaces in the capital, including Brompton Cemetery and Victoria Tower Gardens.
It costs around 60m a year to manage the parks. The charity raises around 80 percent of this money itself, with the remaining 20 percent coming from the Government.
