World’s #1 Zach Bryan Tribute Show

Performing headline shows and major festival appearances across Australia and internationally, Zak Plays Zach has quickly become the world’s #1 touring Zach Bryan tribute show outside the United States, capturing the raw spirit and storytelling energy that has made Zach Bryan a global country phenomenon.
Led by Melbourne-based artist Zak Shepherd and backed by a powerhouse band of professional touring musicians, ZPZ brings Zach’s raw Americana spirit to life in a show that feels both intimate and explosive.
From intimate theatres to large festival stages, Zak Plays Zach consistently delivers unforgettable sing-along moments that turn casual listeners into lifelong fans. The show has quickly become a proven ticket-seller, drawing dedicated Zach Bryan fans and modern country audiences alike.
The show also supports the wider country music community by bringing local original artists onto the stage as opening acts, giving emerging performers the chance to play on bigger stages in front of passionate country music audiences.
Alongside the powerful storytelling of Zach Bryan’s catalogue, the show throws in some essential country classics like Devil Went Down to Georgia — adding moments of high-octane musicianship and crowd participation that keep audiences on their feet.
2026 has already been a breakout year for the show.
Zak Plays Zach kicked off the year with sold-out headline shows across Australia and has become a major crowd draw at the Summer in Nashville Festival, performing to crowds of 5,000–6,000 people across the East Coast of Australia.
The momentum continues internationally, with ZPZ headlining Summer in Nashville Dubai in April 2026, followed by a run of shows across England, Scotland and Wales throughout April and May 2026.
Backed by professional-level marketing support and world-class musicianship, Zak Plays Zach continues to build a loyal following — both in-person and online — as it brings the music of Zach Bryan to passionate audiences across Australia and around the world.
