Did Zach Bryan bail on Noah Kahan?
The rumors are flying after Kahan, the folk pop superstar, played two massive shows at Fenway Park over the weekend – and announced on night 2 that he had a “great guest” lined up but that “it didn’t work out.”

Noah was featured on Zach Bryan’s song “Sarah’s Place” from his 2023 EP Boys of Faith. And Zach has frequently covered Noah’s hit song “Stick Season,” and the two have expressed their mutual admiration for each other numerous times.
So when Noah mentioned that he had a guest lined up for Fenway Park, fans quickly noticed that Zach’s girlfriend, Barstool Sports personality Brianna Chickenfry, was in attendance for the show and began to speculate that it was the “Something In the Orange” singer who was supposed to appear with Noah during his big moment.

This speculation kicked into overdrive when a blind tip was submitted to celebrity gossip site Deuxmoi that claimed Zach was set to appear with Noah but “ended up getting so drunk that he had to back out on it.”
It was also pointed out that Zach and Noah no longer follow each other on Instagram, despite previously liking each other’s posts fairly regularly.
When it was reported that Zach was “so drunk” that he had to back out, Brianna Chickenfry (whose real name is Brianna Lapaglia) responded that Zach wasn’t even at the show, and that he wasn’t able to perform because his “voice was fried” from his show at Gillette Stadium a couple of days earlier, and that he was resting up to get back out on the road.
Neither Zach nor Noah have commented, or even confirmed that Zach was supposed to be the guest at the show, but the internet is convinced that it was the country singer who was supposed to appear with Noah at his stadium show.

But if you want to see them perform onstage together, Noah did appear during Zach’s headlining performance at Pilgrimage Festival last year.
