Listen to Launch: New Country to hear the rising stars of Country and the songs that are sure to be everywhere soon
As a LAUNCH artist, Top and his music will be spotlighted across all Audacy’s platforms introducing him to millions of new fans eager to support the future of Country music. With his new title, Top joins LAUNCH alumni Jelly Roll, Warren Zeiders, Kassi Ashton and more who reached superstar status after their run as LAUNCH artists.
At 27 years old, Top has wow’d fans with his distinct, traditional Country sound reminiscent of some of his longtime heroes including Don Williams, Keith Whitley and Vince Gill. His debut album in 2024, Cold Beer & Country Music, was a breath of fresh air for many Country traditionalists with songs staying true to “three chords and the truth.”
“Three chords and the truth are necessary,” Top recently told Billboard of his perfect recipe. “A fiddle and steel guitar never hurt. But it’s songs that make people feel something and something that’s got a story to it. That’s what I love about Country music — songs that make me feel understood, no matter what stage of life I’m in.”
Lots more to come from Top as we continue to highlight his music, debut headlining tour, and journey to Country music on Audacy stations nationwide. To hear more from Zach Top and the latest in music, visit audacy.com/launch.
