- Announcing The Great American Road Trip Tour & New Member -
Zac Brown Band kicks off 'The Great American Road Trip Tour' in May, introducing ZBB's new, eighth member Matt Mangano on bass.  The tour announcement comes on the heels of ZBB selling out a two-night stand at Fenway Park without any support acts -- a feat only accomplished by four other bands (Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, Jimmy Buffett & The Coral Reefer Band, The Police and The Rolling Stones). 
ZBB fans will recognize Matt Mangano from on-stage guest performances over the years and from his studio work on The Grohl Sessions Vol. 1 and Uncaged. Mangano was even a featured guest player on the band's first live CD/DVD release Pass the Jar... in 2010. Before playing with ZBB, Mangano toured as a guitarist with John Mayer and performed with singer/songwriters Darrell Scott and Dave Barnes.
ZBB's latest musical expansion will see John Driskell Hopkins playing different instruments. Hopkins will continue to sing and play bass, but take on guitar, baritone guitar, ukulele, upright bass, and banjo in the band.
Grammy-winning country artist Kacey Musgraves will be joining Zac Brown Band as support on four dates this summer. Musgraves previously performed at the band's Southern Ground Music & Food Festival in 2013.
