"Pink Skies" is a song by American singer Zach Bryan. It was released on May 24, 2024, as lead single of his upcoming fifth studio album The Great American Bar Scene.
Zach Bryan announced the release of "Pink Skies" on May 24, 2024. He announced it via Twitter as the lead single to an upcoming album titled The Great American Bar Scene. [1]
Casey Young of Whiskey Riff wrote that the song "touches on the feelings of grief and loss that comes with missing a person you love, and many on social media have quickly taken to the song and expressed that Zach was able to perfectly capture what they might not have been able to put into words themselves." [2] According to Bryan, the song was not inspired by any individual moment in his life, but rather in his interest in family dynamics. Lyrically, it is about a family gathering to hold a funeral for one of their members. [1]
Bryan performed the song live for the first time at the Oakland Coliseum on June 1, 2024. [3]
Upon release, "Pink Skies" charted at number six on the Billboard Hot 100. Bryan initially expressed frustration that the label had seemingly serviced the song to pop radio without his knowledge, but Whiskey Riff later reported that the label had not actually done so. [4]
