Zach Bryan has joined the EA Sports Presents Madden Bowl performer lineup, replacing Luke Combs, who has dropped out of the event, as Combs and his wife, Nicole, are expecting the arrival of their third child soon.
In an announcement on Instagram, EA Sports wrote, “Update: Luke has to hold it down at home with a new one on the way. All love for Luke and his family — and we can’t wait to put on an unforgettable #MaddenBowl with @zachlanebryan leading an incredible night of music and football for the fans.”
The event is slated for Feb. 6 at Chase Center in San Francisco. Also on the lineup are Teddy Swims, Stephen Wilson, Jr., Gavin Adcock and rapper LaRussell. This year’s Super Bowl will take place Feb. 8 in Santa Clara, Calif., as the Seattle Seahawks face off against the New England Patriots.
“The last year has been surreal for me, and bringing that energy to Chase Center for Madden Bowl is a dream! Football, the Super Bowl and Madden are such a big part of how people come together, and music is always right there with it,” Swims previously told Billboard. “EA Sports has put together an incredible lineup, and I can’t wait to take the stage!”
The Madden Bowl’s blue carpet will begin at 7 p.m. PT and will be hosted by New York Giants quarterback Jameis Winston and sports commentator Kay Adams. The Madden Bowl will broadcast on EA Sports’ social media channels.
“With Super Bowl LX in the backyard of our global headquarters, this year truly feels like a home game for us,” John Reseburg, VP of Marketing, Partnerships and Communications for EA Sports, previously said in a statement. “This will be our biggest presence ever, and EA Sports Presents Madden Bowl is at the center of it, a celebration of the fans, athletes, creators and music shaping the culture of football. We’re going to bring an incredible show to the Bay, and share that energy with football fans everywhere.”
Bryan recently earned his second Billboard 200 chart-topping album, as his 2026 album With Heaven on Top debuted the pinnacle of the all-genre albums chart.
