ZACH BRYAN RE-UPS WITH WARNER

After a whirlwind renegotiation, Zach Bryan has re-upped with Aaron Bay-Schuck and Tom Corson’s Warner Records. Attorney David Jacobs handled legal for the superstar on the extremely lucrative pact, on which WMG’s Val Blavatnik is said to have played a significant role behind the scenes.

Bryan, who’s managed by Stefan Max and Danny Kang and repped for live by WME, has had an absolutely sensational year.

His recent headlining set at Stagecoach earned huge acclaim, and he’ll be headlining Hyde Park BST in London this summer amid a slate of stadium shows (including the first-ever concert at the 107k-cap Michigan Stadium, this fall).

The country giant’s catalog, meanwhile, has been racking up massive numbers. 2022’s American Heartbreak is at 4.3m ATD, Zach Bryan (2023) at 3.1m and last year’s The Great American Bar Scene at 1.5m. “Something in the Orange” has amassed 1.25b global streams on Spotify and “I Remember Everything” f/Kacey Musgraves has more than 1b.

What’s next for Bryan? How soon will we hear new music? Don’t touch that dial...
