Just a few days ago, couples celebrated Valentine’s Day which usually included a nice dinner, some flowers, and even a well-crafted card. Although a moment to honor love, Zach Top had little time for dinner as his weekend was full of performances. Starting the weekend off, Top performed at the Choctaw Casino in Oklahoma. The very next night, he opened for Alan Jackson. And then, to finish the weekend off, he performed at the San Antonio Rodeo. Making the most out of the weekend, Top even had the chance to share the stage with Jake Worthington for a special performance.

With both Top and Worthington looking to leave their mark on country music, the pair decided to share the spotlight. But instead of picking a song from their own discography, the singers decided to use the time to honor the legendary Willie Nelson. And when it came time to perform, Top and Worthington decided to cover “Yesterday’s Wine.”
Posting the performance online, fans couldn’t get enough of the two stars sharing the stage. “Been saying these two were the future for a long time now.” Another person added, “You know you’re in the pocket when the band/singers are having more fun than the crowd is.”
Zach Top And Jake Worthington Stun With Warmup
While fans received a special treat with the performance, another video surfaced of Top and Worthington warming up before the concert. Causally standing in a dressing room, the two proved that even without the lights and stage, they could still produce a mesmerizing performance.
Climbing the ranks of country music, Top once discussed his love for the genre and how it continuously focused on the 90s era of country. Considered to some the golden age of country, the singer appeared to agree, noting, “It’s probably the peak of country music in my book, you know, the stuff that I was growing up on and the stuff that made me fall in love with country.”
While Top wasn’t born until the late 1990s, that didn’t stop him from finding comfort with the classics. “It was a lot of that ’90s stuff, and then I went back earlier to when [Merle] Haggard, [George] Jones, all that was kind of the rage. I love all that old stuff.”
