Zach Bryan is giving fans a new collection of music with the release of Young Manhood and Other Donatable Organs, an eight-song EP available through Warner Records. The project marks Bryan’s first new release since With Heaven on Top, his 25-track album that debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 in January.
The biggest draw is “Lies,” a collaboration with Lana Del Rey that brings together two artists known for emotionally driven songwriting. Del Rey had teased the collaboration before the release, building anticipation among fans eager to hear the two singers share a track.
Bryan also teamed up with fellow Oklahomans Turnpike Troubadours for “Plainsman,” adding another prominent collaboration to the project. The band has been an influence on Bryan’s musical development, making the partnership a notable moment for the Oklahoma-born singer-songwriter.
The EP’s tracklist includes “Lodi When,” “Robot Killed the Working Man,” “Lies,” “Dog Days,” “Backwards,” “Is the Blue Tangled in You?,” “Plainsman” and “You’ll Get By.” Several of the songs, including “Robot Killed the Working Man” and “Backwards,” had already drawn attention after Bryan performed them during his recent tour.
The release follows a busy year for Bryan, whose With Heaven on Top album featured 25 songs, with all of them charting following its debut. He also released an acoustic companion to that album just three days later, giving listeners stripped-down versions of the original tracks.
Bryan has continued to build his reputation as one of country music’s biggest contemporary performers. His 2026 touring schedule included stadium shows across North America and Europe, with an October performance at Gillette Stadium in Massachusetts drawing 73,538 fans and setting an attendance record for the venue.
The new EP also arrives as Bryan prepares for another major stadium tour in 2027. The planned 23-date run will begin in Minneapolis in April and include stops across the United States before continuing to Australia later in the year. Tickets are scheduled to go on sale to the general public on October 23.
With two high-profile collaborations and eight new tracks, Young Manhood and Other Donatable Organs give Bryan’s fans fresh music following the success of his January release while keeping the focus on the songwriting and country-folk sound that helped establish his career.
