‘Yellowstone’ star Ryan Bingham added to Zach Bryan’s two-night Denver stadium run in August

Jul 8, 2026, 4:14 PM

If you’ve spent any time binge-watching “Yellowstone,” you already know the voice. Ryan Bingham, the Oscar-winning singer-songwriter who played guitar-slinging ranch hand Walker on all five seasons of the Paramount mega-hit, has been added to Zach Bryan’s “With Heaven On Tour” for the stadium leg, including two nights at Empower Field at Mile High on Aug. 13 and Aug. 14.

Bingham and his backing band The Texas Gentlemen will join Fey Fili as support for both Denver dates, with gates opening at 7 p.m. each night. Tickets are on sale now through Ticketmaster, with resale seats starting around $24.

For “Yellowstone” fans in Colorado, a state that practically shares a property line with the Duttons’ Montana, Bingham’s addition is the real headline. He appeared in 37 episodes as Walker, the ex-con turned bunkhouse cowboy who Taylor Sheridan wrote specifically for him after learning Bingham grew up riding horses and ranching in New Mexico. Sheridan’s pitch was characteristically blunt: “If you do good, I’ll keep you in there and if you suck we’ll just kill you off.” Walker not only survived, he became a fan favorite, narrowly dodging the fictional “train station” more than once while performing original songs on screen that helped define the show’s gritty Western soundtrack. Before “Yellowstone” ever called, Bingham had already won the Academy Award for Best Original Song for “The Weary Kind” from the 2009 film “Crazy Heart.” He married Hassie Harrison, who played Laramie on “Yellowstone,” in October 2023, making them the show’s real-life bunkhouse couple.

Empower Field has become Denver’s go-to concert stadium this summer — AC/DC’s Power Up Tour hits July 28 — and Bryan’s back-to-back shows will push the venue’s August concert calendar even further. For Coloradans who can’t get enough of the “Yellowstone” universe, Bingham opening for Bryan under the lights at Mile High might be the closest thing to a Dutton Ranch campfire sing-along you’ll find east of the Continental Divide.
