Zac Brown wasn’t lying when he revealed last year on the Theo Von podcast that his eponymous band would perform at the Sphere by the end of the year.

He just didn’t say which year. Now, the country star has made the same premature announcement again.

At the 18:41 mark in the video below, Brown recognizes and approaches vlogger Kai Cenat, who was livestreaming the American Music Awards from the front row at the Fontainebleau for the YouTube channel @ClipFarm on Monday night.




“Nice to meet you,” Brown told Cenat. “We’re doing a residency at the Sphere, end of the year, in Vegas.”

Brown then enters his phone number into Cenat’s cell and starts returning to his seat. He doubles back seconds later, however, apparently concerned that his revelation had been videoed.

Brown then whispers into Cenat’s ear a few indecipherable sentences beginning with the words “We’re not releasing it until …” to which Brown replies, “OK, all right,” indicating that the secret was safe with him.

It wasn’t.

We might have just leaked,” Cenat then tells his cameraperson once Brown is out of earshot, asking, “Who was that? You know who he is? What he do? Big-ass country artist?”

After Cenat Googles the man who had just recognized him, he says: “Oh my god, big. He’s massive. What?!”

The Sphere never officially comments on upcoming performers it hasn’t officially announced yet. However, six months of dates are open at the globular marvel after the Eagles’ last announced performance on Nov. 8, 2025, and before Kenny Chesney returns on May 22, 2026.

During Von’s podcast last year, Brown said of the Sphere: “It’s the greatest canvas ever created, and to be one of the first bands to go in there and do it, this is our masterpiece. This is our chance to show what we can really do as a band.”
