Bailey Zimmerman

Bailey Zimmerman has surged to the forefront of 21st century country music with the release of Religiously. The Album., arriving as not only the biggest all-genre streaming debut since 2021, but also the biggest streaming country debut of all time. Deriving its name from his rapidly rising current country radio single, “Religiously,” the LP entered at No. 3 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart and No. 7 on their all-genre Billboard 200 chart. The “comfortably bruising and appealingly bruised” (The New York Times) project also features his multi-Platinum, No. 1 debut single, “Fall In Love,” as well as his most recent multi-Platinum hit, “Rock And A Hard Place,” which spent a whopping six consecutive weeks at the top of Billboard’s Country Airplay Chart. Both tracks were also included on his record-shattering debut EP, Leave The Light On, and their success propelled the breakout superstar to close out 2022 as the year’s only country artist to receive two Platinum certifications from the RIAA and prompted Billboard to name him as their No. 2 Top New Country Artist and No. 4 Top New Artist Overall. The 2023 ACM Awards New Male Artist of the Year nominee and CMT Music Awards multi-nominee has ignited television audiences across the country with show-stopping performances on Good Morning America, Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve, Jimmy Kimmel LIVE! and the 58th Academy of Country Music Awards, and incited critical applause from Forbes, Rolling Stone, Los Angeles Times, Billboard, American Songwriter and many more. With more than 2 billion streams to date, he is out on the road now with Morgan Wallen as part of his monumental 2023 One Night At A Time Tour, and already selling out football stadiums coast-to-coast including SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, Wrigley Field in Chicago and Fenway Park in Boston.

Barry Manilow (Rescheduled from 1/10)

'In a world forever striving for peace, could Barry Manilow be the answer?'  (The Washington Post after Barry Manilow’s headlining performance at the recent Nobel Peace Prize Concert in Oslo, Norway) With worldwide sales of more than 80 million records, Barry Manilow’s success is a benchmark in popular music. His concerts sell out instantly. He is ranked as the top Adult Contemporary chart artist of all time, according to R&R (Radio & Records) andand Billboard Magazines. Rolling Stonecrowned him “a giant among entertainers… the showman of our generation,” and Frank Sinatra summed up Manilow best when Ol’ Blue Eyes told the British press, “He’s next.” Manilow’s roots are in his native Brooklyn, where music was an integral part of his life. By the age of seven, he was taking accordion lessons and playing on a neighbor’s piano. Chosing a career in music while still in his teens, he attended New York College of Music and the Julliard School of Music while working in the mailroom at CBS. He subsequently became musical director for a CBS show named Callback, which led to a lucrative sideline on New York’s advertising jingle circuit.  In 1971, Barry Manilow met Bette Midler and became her music director, arranger and pianist. The following year, he signed with Bell Records to record his debut solo album. In 1974, Clive Davis founded a new label, Arista, along with Columbia Pictures. Davis had the right to choose any artist on the Columbia Pictures-owned Bell Records to bring to Arista. Davis chose Manilow and the rest is history. He famously brought Manilow a recent U.K. hit song entitled Brandy (by its writer Scott English).  Clive changed the title to Mandy so it wouldn’t be confused with the Looking Glass U.S. hit Brandy. When Manilow’s Arista single reached Number One in early 1975, it ignited one of the most incandes­cent careers in pop. Manilow is ranked as the top Adult Contemporary chart artist of all time, according to R&R, with no less than 25 consecutive Top 40 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 between 1975 and 1983.  The list includes all-time favorites that Manilow still sings today: Mandy, It’s A Miracle, Could It Be Magic, I Write the Songs, Tryin’ To Get the Feeling Again, This One’s For You, Weekend In New England, Looks Like We Made It, Can’t Smile Without You, Even Now, and the Grammy Award-winning Copacabana (At the Copa).  All of these songs (and more) were anthologized on the commemorative 1992 four-CD boxed-set, Barry Manilow: The Complete Collection And Then Some. To date, 29 albums by Manilow have been certified plati­num. In June 2002, Manilow was inducted into the National Academy of Popular Music’s Songwriters Hall of Fame alongside Ashford & Simpson, Michael Jackson, Randy Newman, and Sting. Manilow is a member of the Board of Governors of the National Academy of Jazz.  His autobiography Sweet Life: Adventures on the Way to Paradise was published by McGraw-Hill in 1987. In addition to his own foundation, the Manilow Fund for Health and Hope, other involvements include The Prince's Trust, United Way, the Starlight Foundation, and several leading organizations for AIDS prevention and research.  Manilow is the national spokesperson for the Foundation Fighting Blindness and a member of the Music Center of Los Angeles.

Third Day

Music is meant to feel “lived-in,” not unlike a favorite old jacket or a first car. At least that’s what multiplatinum two-time GRAMMY® Award-winning Arkansas-born and Nashville-based maverick Zach Williams would say. Through a fusion of southern rock spirit and country soul, Zach creates music with an exterior which is worn down in the best way, but all heart underneath rough guitar riffs and gravelly vocals. You’ll not only hear his journey in the music, but you’ll also see it in his unfiltered storytelling—how he went from a tiny town to international stardom, selling out shows, toppling charts, and collaborating with the likes of Dolly Parton. Along the way, he battled addiction, anxiety, and insecurity, coming out on the other side with a whole lot to say. After living through the lowest of lows and the highest of highs, he made a choice to trust his gut more than ever in 2021. Doing so had certainly served him well up to this point, so he wholeheartedly embraced his most formative inspirations, including rock and old school country. He also didn’t hold anything back during the writing, confronting all of those moments with a stark honesty and a sharp pen honed over the decade preceding. He ultimately needed to live through it in order to commit it to paper Now, he's projecting his voice like never before on his third full-length album, A Hundred Highways [Provident Label Group]. “I love music that hits me in a place where I think, ‘Man, that guy or girl has lived through it right there’,” he exclaims. “I believe you can hear it in the break and tremble of the vocals. I’m going to keep all the cracks and truth in my music.” In order to find this truth, he took stock of the trip thus far. Given the extra time off the road in the middle of the Pandemic, he dug deeper into himself. Where his 2019 album Rescue Story examined his battle with drug and alcohol addiction, seeing him arrive at his purpose, A Hundred Highways picks up where he left off. In the process, he evolved by further leaning into rock ‘n’ roll and blues, speaking as candidly as ever in the lyrics. “For the first time, I just spoke what’s on my heart,” he admits. “I wasn’t thinking of a genre or a format. We didn’t care about a radio single or fitting anybody’s expectations. I said what I needed to say, because of that this album means everything to me.” Taking his time, Zach reteamed with longtime collaborator and producer Johnathan Smith. He recorded out of his own studio as well as Sound Emporium in Nashville and the world-famous Blackbird Studio. Writing for his longest span yet, Zach placed himself in the mindset of both his darkest and brightest moments. “Over almost two years, we kept chiseling away until we felt like we had the right songs for the project,” he elaborates. “I’ve kept my past close because I don’t really want to go back to it. Keeping those memories in the rearview prevents me from returning to who I was. I don’t want to be that guy in real life, so I’ll think about him in the music. I’ve always worn my heart on my sleeve. It’s who I am.” The track “Looking For You” illustrates the scope of his songwriting. Zach’s voice echoes with grit on the refrain, “Down a hundred highways of empty pursuit, and a thousand foolish things I went through. I didn’t know it back then, but now I do. I was looking for you.” “It might be the most personal song on the record,” he reveals. “It reminds me of an old saying, ‘The first place you find something is the last place you look for it.’ I’ve tried to fill all these holes in my life. The material things I thought would make me happy didn’t. In some respects, this sums up the record. I’ve been down a lot of roads to get to where I am today.” Then, there’s “Jesus’ Fault” with Walker Hayes. It marks the first time Zach cut a song he didn’t write on, but upon hearing it, he had no choice. Inhabiting the words, he approaches the opening line from a place of wisdom and experience as he immediately proclaims, “That Bible by the bed ain’t a coaster no more. It’s still got some rings from the bottles before.” “I needed to record this song,” he smiles. “In the second verse, Walker talks about his dad and their relationship. My relationship with my dad was a lot different, so I said, ‘I’d love for you to be a part of this and sing the verse if you’re interested’. He told us to send our version. When we did, he replied, ‘Dude, I was working out at the gym, and I started crying listening to the song. I’d love to be a part of it’. It’s a country tune through and through.” Elsewhere on “Praise Opens Prisons,” Zach directly calls out to fellow addicts, “Are you bound? Lost in addiction, ya can’t seem to kick it. Well, I know a way out.” He penned the confessional “Love is a Battleground” for his wife. Punctuated by soft slide guitar and piano, he expresses gratitude, “Yeah, you kept on coming for me, ‘cause you knew love is a battleground.” “Love is a fight,” he remarks. “My story with my wife was poking its head in. When I was in my wildest and most reckless times, she was there. She stood by my side when everybody told her, ‘Man, you need to leave this dude. He’s nuts. He’s crazy. He’s a loser. He’s never going to change’. She fought for our family. I keep going back to those places in the songs, and I’m grateful she never gave up.” The single “Heart of God” explodes with emotion and feeling, coupled with a music video equally as resonant. “I know you're hurtin', I can see it in your eyes,” Zach sings gently with a sense of empathy and emotion that spills out of the speaker. The track has proven to be one of Williams’ fastest growing singles, and showcases Zach’s soaring vocals mixed with power, and both tenderness and grit. The album opener “Big Tent Revival” resounds with the raucous and rowdy energy of a hometown party soundtracked by rock ‘n’ roll twisted up with dusty bluegrass. It channels moments of “listening to bluegrass in the square as a kid and hanging out at my grandparents.” He goes on, “The song brought me back to all of those memories, pulling on the heartstrings with nostalgia.” “Up There Down Here” hinges on the twang of a hummable chord progression as it ponders what might be going on beyond this life. On “I Got You,” his robust vocals take hold, offering a moment of assurance in the hook. “It’s a conversation,” he notes. “It imagines hanging out or driving around and essentially talking to God about your problems with this being the response, ‘I Got You’.” It took a long time for him to get here. Zach grew up in Bono, AR—a small suburb of barely 2,000 people outside of Jonesboro. His old man led worship in church, and Zach accompanied his parents to music practice as a young kid. One day, he recalled a family friend opening up a guitar case and effectively changing his life. “I saw a red cherry burst Les Paul, and I couldn’t explain how I felt,” he remembers. Dad kept a guitar in the house with a myriad of music charts. Throughout high school, Zach spent countless hours listening to the likes of Pantera, Rage Against The Machine, Guns N’ Roses, and Soundgarden. He often mimicked Axl Rose and Chris Cornell in his car by himself. Simultaneously, he excelled on the basketball court, achieving a full scholarship to Northwest Arkansas University. During college, he attended his first blues festival, which proved transformative in its own right. Blown away by Luther Allison and Keb’ Mo, he picked up a guitar for the first time. Developing an infatuation with the blues, he immersed himself in stalwarts a la Robert Johnson in addition to The Black Crowes, Gov’t Mule, The Allman Brothers Band, and Bob Seger. “I always loved a melting pot of music,” he notes. “As I discovered my voice and sound, I took all of those influences and tried to adapt them into who I am.” After grinding on the regional scene as Zach Williams & The Reformation, he kickstarted a solo career with his debut LP Chainbreaker in 2016. The record earned a platinum certification, picked up a GRAMMY® Award and yielded platinum singles “Chainbreaker” and “Fear Is A Liar” as well as gold “Old Church Choir.” After a whirlwind tour cycle, he returned with Rescue Story. The platinum single “There Was Jesus” [feat. Dolly Parton] scored Zach his second GRAMMY® Award. In this time, Zach tallied nearly 1 billion streams and counting. Ultimately, Zach traveled A Hundred Highways to get to his most definitive body of work to date “In the end, it doesn’t matter what you’ve done, where you’ve been, and what you’re going through,” he leaves off. “It’s not about how you start your race; it’s always about how you end it. I’m taking things one day at a time. Every day, I have an opportunity to be a better person. And that’s what I’m trying to be.”
