Zac Brown: 25 Things You Dont Know About Me
He’s making his comeback. While supporting the Zac Brown Band’s new album, The Comeback, Zac Brown himself exclusively revealed some fun facts about himself to Us Weekly.
Brown, 43, is the country group’s lead singer, but when he isn’t rocking out on stage, he’s at home with his five kids — daughters Justice, 14, Lucy, 13, Georgia, 11, and Joni, 10, as well as son Alexander, 7. The musician coparents with ex-wife Shelly Brown, from whom he split in 2018. “I like teaching my kids how to do stuff,” the Georgia native told Us.
The proud papa revealed that he loves playing Fortnite and Monopoly with his family, and they like to spend Sundays on the water. When he isn’t with his kids, he’s in the studio. While he loves a lot of his songs — he said “Colder Weather” will always be a special one — but a certain track from his new album, The Comeback, which dropped on October 15, is a new favorite.
“I really love ‘Stubborn Pride’ (feat. Marcus King), off our new album, The Comeback,” he said. “I love a lot of our new songs.”
Brown told Us all about his favorite things, hidden talents and more. Scroll down for 25 things you don’t know about the artist:
