From a job at a meat processing plant to country music stardom, Bailey Zimmerman is figuring it out
August 4, 2025
Country singer Bailey Zimmerman is releasing his sophomore album, “Different Night Same Rodeo.” Coming out Friday, it follows his successful 2023 debut, “Religiously. The Album.” Zimmerman is a far cry from where he was before 2020, when he was working at his local meat processing plant and laying gas pipeline. Uploading videos to TikTok built him a loyal fan base and the rest is history. For his new album, Zimmerman told The Associated Press he focused on doing what he does best. He wrote songs about his life to connect with others. “Different Night Same Rodeo” also features Luke Combs, the Kid LAROI and Diplo.
