Two country stars make Forbes’ 30 Under 30 and Ronnie Dunn suffers an injury | Music City Minute

Congratulations to Zach Bryan and Shaboozey, who have been chosen for the Forbes “30 Under 30” list for 2025. The list is made up of some of the most influential young changemakers across different industries including sports, gaming, entertainment, education, social media and of course, music. Both Bryan and Shaboozey have had an incredibly massive year; with Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy),” spending 19 weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
Quickly, someone call Life Alert and sign up Ronnie Dunn, because he has fallen and can’t get up. No, he didn’t break a hip, but he did injure his knee after a nasty spill on the ski slopes. On the plus side though, he gets an eight-week vacation to heal up. Hopefully he gets plenty of rest and recuperation because he’ll want to be up-to-snuff when Brooks & Dunn kick off the Neon Moon Tour early next year.
I’m Sheena, and that’s your Music City Minute.
