Extensive Cold Beer & Country Music Tour Confirmed
NASHVILLE, TN. – Acclaimed singer, songwriter and musician Zach Top’s highly anticipated sophomore album, Ain’t In It For My Health, is out today via Leo33. Stream/download here.
The project features Top’s recent releases ‘South of Sanity’ and ‘Good Times & Tan Lines’, the latter of which the Los Angeles Times selected as one of the “Best Songs of 2025 so far” calling it “As crisp as country music gets.”
Already receiving widespread critical attention, Top recently spoke with Jon Caramanica for a profile at The New York Times “Top’s commitment to form remains immaculate: a high-wire routine so aesthetically faithful and brimming with theatrical mirth that he’s almost winking, merging a sense of history and a sense of play.”

Since its release last year, Cold Beer & Country Music has garnered over one billion streams and was nominated for ACM Album of the Year, while multiple tracks have earned RIAA certifications including ‘I Never Lie’ (2x Platinum), ‘Sounds Like the Radio’ (Gold), ‘Use Me’ (Gold) and ‘Back Luck’ (Gold). Produced by Carson Chamberlain (Billy Currington, Easton Corbin), the record received 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 building a reputation as one of country music’s most promising new voices.
