BAILEY ZIMMERMAN at the Illinois State Fair

Hailing from Louisville, Illinois, multi-platinum singer-songwriter Bailey Zimmerman is one of country music’s brightest stars, and he’s heading to the grandstand of the Illinois State Fair on August 14th!

In 2023, Zimmerman released his debut album, which arrived as not only the biggest streaming debut for a country album in history, but also the biggest all-genre streaming debut since 2021. The “comfortably bruising and appealingly bruised” (The New York Times) album also features his fourth consecutive No. 1 single “Where It Ends,” his 4x-Platinum, No. 1 debut single, “Fall In Love,” and its 5x-Platinum follow-up, the six-week No. 1 mega-hit “Rock And A Hard Place.” The album debuted at #3 on the Top Country Albums chart and #7 on the Billboard 200, instantly positioning him as one of the genre’s most impactful new voices.

In 2024, Zimmerman continued to dominate the charts with singles “Holy Smokes,” “Holding On” and “New To Country” all of which made a splash. August of 2025 saw the release of Zimmerman’s Sophomore album, Different Night Same Rodeo, which includes country radio’s #1 hit superstar collaboration “Backup Plan” featuring Luke Combs as well as Top 10 and platinum single “Holy Smokes,” in addition to “New To Country,” “Hell or High Water,” “Holding On,” “Comin’ In Cold,” and more.
