Zach Top has released the three-song EP ‘Me & Billy (Live),’ which sees the pair reimagining versions of Top’s original tracks “Bad Luck” and “Things To Do” along with a cover of Ricky Skaggs’ “Don’t Cheat In Our Home Town.”
Top shares: “We had a lot of fun, traded back and forth some playing and whatnot. It’s so fun to watch him play. And I feel like he’s known so much for a player that it gets passed over sometimes how freaking good of a singer he is too. It was so fun to get to sing with him and him kind enough to come in on a couple of my songs and sing a second verse, sing a little harmony, do that kind of thing. It was a blast.”
The new project follows Strings’ first live album, Live Vol. 1, which debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Bluegrass Albums chart and won Best Bluegrass Album at this year’s 67th Annual Grammy Awards.
Meanwhile, Top is serving as support on select dates of Alan Jackson’s “Last Call Tour,” and will join Dierks Bentley’s “Broken Branches Tour” beginning in May.
