American Heartbreak is Zach Bryan's major label debut album. The meaning, importance, and heart of this album is best described in the artist's own words."This album to me is all the trials we face day-in and day out and I wrote all the stories on it hoping someone, somewhere might relate or some kid might pick up an instrument and replicate it in an effort to be an artist. Some songs are sad, some are happy, some are hopeful and some are hopeless, all of them mean something different to me and I pray they mean something to someone else. American Heartbreak is my effort at trying to explain what being a 26 year old man in America is like. There's love, loss, revelry, resentment, and forgiveness all wrapped into one piece of work."
