If you miss songs that sound like real country, this is for you. A young singer named Zach Top is winning fans by sounding like the greats from the 80s and 90s, and his “Slow Hand” cover shows exactly why people are paying attention.
On stage in Greensboro, North Carolina, during his Cold Beer & Country Music Tour, Zach does not dress the song up with tricks. He leans on the same tools that built the golden era. A smooth baritone that recalls Keith Whitley. The easy, natural charm of George Strait.
What makes it special is not just nostalgia. It is the way he treats the song like a living thing. He takes his time. The crowd sings along to every line, and you can feel that some of them grew up with this song while others are hearing it live for the first time.
Zach’s story fits his sound. A ranch kid from Sunnyside, Washington. A bluegrass start with his family band. Now he is the name many fans point to when they say they miss “real country.” Awards talk and radio spins are starting to follow that word of mouth.

This concert capture from the Cold Beer & Country Music Tour 2025 puts you right inside the First Horizon Coliseum in Greensboro on October 23, 2025. You see the same stage, the same crowd, and the same easy confidence as he rolls through “Good Times & Tan Lines,” “Beer for Breakfast,” “Lonely for Long,” and more.

“Sounds Like the Radio” is his mission statement, a catchy, clever reminder of how 90s country used to feel on the dial. The video shows him and his band storming a radio station to make them play real country, while Brent Mason’s guitar and Carson Chamberlain’s touch keep every note rooted in that era.
