Zac Brown Band opened its eight-date (so far) limited engagement at Las Vegas’ Sphere on Friday night (Dec. 5), bringing a show filled with hits and fan favorites.
The inaugural night coincided with the self-release of the group’s new album, Love & Fear, also out Dec. 5 and the evening’s 26 songs drew heavily on the new set with seven songs performed. The other 19 tunes spanned the triple-Grammy winning band’s repertoire extending back to its first album, 2008’s The Foundation.
Talking to Billboard earlier this year about the band’s Sphere run, Brown said it is the realization of a dream he has had even before the immersive venue opened in 2023.
“I’ve been wanting to do a spectacle for a couple years,” he said, “I’ve been planning to figure out how to do something where the production and the fan experience is just on [another] level. And then in my planning for doing that, I heard about the Sphere and toured the building while it was under construction. I was like, ‘This is the place…’ The Sphere is the greatest canvas that’s ever been created for imagination.”
Brown calls the Sphere appearance and the new album “2.0 for our band,” who has landed five albums on top of Billboard’s Country Albums chart. “There’s some bands, they keep going for a while and then they kind of get tired, they stop,” he said. “But my passion and my creativity is as good now as it’s ever been, and I just want to keep pushing the envelope of what our band is capable of and bringing our fans along for the ride… This is our chance to show that we’re not slowing down. We’ve actually got our foot on the gas.”
Below are all the songs that Zac Brown Band performed on the first night of their 8-night Sphere residency that runs through Jan. 17. The first four shows are sold out, while limited tickets remain for the remaining four dates.
