Ernest’s career is really taking off. However, he’s making a conscious effort to take care of his mental health. In an emotional statement, the “Flower Shops” singer announced he is taking a month break from the road. He admits touring has taken a toll on him and his toddler son, Ryman. Ernest goes on thank his fans for their understanding and support.
Zach Byran just released his latest album, “The Great American Bar Scene.” The LP has 19 tracks and features his latest single, “Pink Skies.” Byran said he wrote and produced the album with some great friends, and fans will hear new collaborations with Bruce Springsteen and John Mayer.
