The WM Phoenix Open is just around the corner and it is an event not to be missed, especially this year with the star-studded lineup that has been announced for the concerts happening throughout the week surrounding the prestigious golf tournament. As many fans know, golf and country music artists go hand-in-hand, with artists often enjoying the sport as a way to relax & unwind while out on the road. Over the years we’ve seen many country artists participate in the Pro-Am round at the WM Phoenix Open, and we can’t wait to see who will be there this year.
In addition to the golf tournament, the WM Phoenix Open event also includes multiple concerts throughout the nearly week long event. Kicking things off a couple of days early on Saturday, January 31, will be Tyler Hubbard as he is set to open for The Killers for the 2026 Concert in the Coliseum presented by Swire Coca-Cola. Hubbard will showcase his artistry at the iconic 16th hole getting the crowd excited for not only the night ahead with The Killers, but also for an incredible week of golf ahead.
The Coors Light Birds Nest Concert Series is always a blast and an absolute must-see when in town for the event. Each year the concert series is epic and country music is well represented. This year is no different. Kicking things off opening night of the 2026 Coors Light Birds Nest Concert Series is Bailey Zimmerman on Wednesday February 4. His high-energy shows will no doubt set the tone for the exciting week ahead at the Birds Nest. This will serve as Bailey’s second time performing at the Coors Light Birds Nest, in 2024 the artist on the rise opened for Hardy & captivated the crowd with his radiating stage presence.
“Bailey’s first appearance brought an incredible surge of energy to the Coors Light Birds Nest, and we knew right then we would definitely want to bring him back,” said 2026 WM Phoenix Open Tournament Chairman Jason Eisenberg. “Bailey delivers a powerful, crowd-moving performance every time, and this year’s show will kick off tournament week with an unforgettable night of country music.”
Joining the lineup for the evening opening for Zimmerman is Chase Matthew who recently earned his first #1 hit with, “Darlin'”. Having Bailey Zimmerman and Chase Matthew kicks things off for the 2026 Coors Light Birds Nest Concert Series serves as a solid introduction to the fun-filled week ahead!
The country music presence continues as Zach Top is set to make his debut at the 2026 Coors Light Birds Nest Concert Series on Thursday, February 5. The newly crowned CMA New Artist of the Year is quickly becoming a force within the genre. His blend of classic country influences with today’s country energy has been widely embraced. Top will be joined by standout singer/songwriter ERNEST who is set to open the show and will no doubt be a crowd engaging, fun performance.
“We are excited to lock in Zach Top for Thursday night for this year’s Coors Light Birds Nest,” Jason Eisenberg shares. “Zach is one of the most exciting young voices in country music right now, and his sound mixed with modern energy will set the perfect tone for what’s shaping up to be another electric week of live music during WM Phoenix Open week.”
