Zach Top Isn’t Cosplaying Country | Bertcast # 717

Zach Top hangs out and we get into his whole ride. We talk about his start playing bluegrass with his family, being discovered on social media, Nashville shysters, country music’s new wave, the CMA beer moment, Garth Brooks, bad jokes, and the difference between sounding traditional and actually doing your own thing. He’s funny, grounded, and crazy talented - playing songs that remind you why he’s one of the Top voices in country right now.
