Acclaimed singer, songwriter and musician Zach Top made his late-night television debut last night, performing “I Never Lie” on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.” The single is #4 on the Mediabase Country Aircheck chart and #7 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart this week and continuing to rise on both, while it has also spent four consecutive weeks as the #1 most-played song on Australian Country Radio.
The performance adds to a breakout year for Top, who was named the 2025 ACM New Male Artist of the Year and is also nominated for Album of the Year at the upcoming 60th Annual ACM Awards, which will take place next Thursday, May 8 in Frisco, TX. Additionally, Top was named “the future of country music” by Billboard, nominated for New Artist of the Year at the 58th Annual CMA Awards, received Discovery Artist of the Year at the 2024 MusicRow Awards and recently released Me & Billy—a three-song EP featuring 2x Grammy Award-winning artist Billy Strings (listen here).
One of the “hottest acts right now” (Rolling Stone), Top is in the midst of his extensive “Cold Beer & Country Music Tour,” which completely sold out just hours after tickets went on sale and includes upcoming stops at New York’s Terminal 5, Philadelphia’s The Fillmore and Boston’s MGM Music Hall at Fenway among others. Additionally, Top is supporting select dates with Alan Jackson on his “Last Call Tour” this spring and will join Dierks Bentley’s “Broken Branches Tour” kicking off next month. See below for complete tour itinerary, full details can be found at www.zachtop.com/tour.
The upcoming shows further celebrate Top’s debut album, Cold Beer & Country Music, which was released last spring and garnered over 3.5 million streams in just its first week. Produced by Carson Chamberlain (Billy Currington, Easton Corbin), the record continues to receive widespread acclaim with The Tennessean saying it’s full of “star-making tunes,” while Country Central praised, “Cold Beer & Country Music is a masterclass in traditional country music…With a record this strong, Zach Top has proven himself as a standout rising star in this format and a premier vocalist in country music.”
Raised in Sunnyside, WA, Top grew up on classic country music around the family farm. At the age of seven, he formed a band with his siblings which set the stage for his musical ambitions. Throughout his teenage years and early twenties, Top honed his craft by playing in various bluegrass bands before moving to Nashville in 2021, where he has been steadily making his mark as an artist to watch.
