On Tuesday (July 1), Zach Bryan surprised fans by releasing three brand new songs, including “Streets of London,” which he recently debuted at his historic Hyde Park shows. “Releasing a song Monday hope u guys don’t hate it, recorded it at bowies old studio across the pond with my best friends,” Bryan wrote in an Instagram post announcing the release of “London.” But after Monday passed without the new song, the country star surprise dropped two additional tracks, “River Washed Hair” and “Song for You” to make up for the delay. “They are kind of just tunes that didn’t belong on the record, and they didn’t fit on an EP either,” Bryan wrote in an expired Instagram Story. “So I’m just releasing them to get them out into the world cause I love them. Hope you guys enjoy them.” Bryan still had his recent London shows on his mind, adding, “Only five people ever have sold out Hyde Park two nights in a row. I have you guys to thank for it.” (Billboard)

During his recent Big Ass Stadium Tour stop at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, Post Malone unexpectedly fell off the stage while toasting with a fan in the audience. Despite the fall, Post continued the performance unharmed, and the fan took to TikTok to express her apologies, writing alongside the clip of the tumble, “I am SO sorry Austin. I love you! Such an amazing show ❤️.” This incident marks the second notable time that Malone has fallen off stage, with the first occurring in St. Louis in 2022 on his Twelve Carat Tour. That fall resulted in the show being cut short, with Post suffering bruised ribs that required a brief hospitalization. Malone just wrapped up the North American leg of his Big Ass Stadium Tour on Tuesday in San Francisco, with a run of European and U.K. dates set to start in August. (Rolling Stone)

Before he even played a note, Morgan Wallen already made history by becoming the first artist to secure a second show at Madison, Wisconsin’s 76,000-capacity Camp Randall Stadium. The chart-topping country superstar played two sold-out shows at the massive venue on Saturday and Sunday night (June 28-29) as part of his I’m The Problem Tour. To mark the occasion, Wallen brought out his special guest opening acts during Saturday’s show, as Miranda Lambert joined him for a stirring duet on his 2024 Country Airplay No. 1 hit, “Cowgirls,” while Ella Langley sang Tate McRae's part on Wallen’s Billboard Hot 100 chart-topping duet, "What I Want." Following Wallen’s historic two-night stand at Camp Randall Stadium, his I’m The Problem Tour continues with two shows at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida, on July 11-12, with Lambert set to open the first night along with rising country star Gavin Adcock, while Brooks & Dunn are set to kick off the second night.

Corey Kent claims his first career No. 1 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart with "This Heart." The track jumps up two places to reach the top spot on the strength of 27.9 million audience impressions over the past week, up 16% from the previous seven days. The song, co-written by Thomas Archer, Blake Bollinger, Jacob Hackworth, and Michael Tyler, and produced by Chris Farren, is from Kent’s album Black Bandana, released in September 2024. “This Heart” marks Kent’s first No. 1 following three Country Airplay entries, with “Wild as Her” hitting No. 3 in May in 2023, and “Something’s Gonna Kill Me” reaching No. 40 in January 2024. “I couldn’t be more proud of ‘This Heart.’ It is everything that I love about country music,” says Kent, a former contestant on The Voice back in 2015.
