Zac Brown Says I Do in Santorini, Band Shifts Into High Gear

Zac Brown, lead singer of the three-time Grammy-winning Zac Brown Band, married jewelry designer Kendra Scott on May 25 at Canaves Epitome Resort in Santorini, Greece. The couple exchanged vows in an intimate ceremony surrounded by family and friends, marking a major personal milestone for the country music frontman just as his band enters what he calls a“2.0”creative era.

The relationship moved fast. Brown and Scott made their red carpet debut together at the American Music Awards in 2025, got engaged on July 24 of that year, and now they’re married—all within about a year. When announcing their engagement to People, the couple said they were“so happy and grateful that we found each other,”and that same energy appears to be carrying into this next chapter of both their personal and professional lives.

What makes the timing particularly interesting is where Zac Brown Band finds itself right now. The group just wrapped a groundbreaking limited engagement at The Sphere in Las Vegas last December, becoming the first country group to headline a show at the venue. Their 2025 album Love&Fear featured high-profile collaborations with Dolly Parton, Snoop Dogg, and Marcus King. Speaking to Billboard in July 2025, Brown articulated his renewed sense of purpose:“My passion and my creativity is as good now as it’s ever been, and I just want to keep pushing the envelope of what our band is capable of and bringing our fans along for the ride… This is our chance to show that we’re not slowing down. We’ve actually got our foot on the gas.”

That momentum continues into summer 2026. The Love&Fear Tour launches this month in July, with stops planned for Boston, Pittsburgh, St. Louis, and beyond. The band’s also set to perform at the UFC Freedom 250 Fan Fest on June 13 at the White House in Washington, D.C.—a significant cultural moment for a country act. With 14 No. 1 Billboard Country Airplay hits to their name (including“Chicken Fried”and“Highway 20 Ride”) and five albums that topped the Top Country Albums chart, Zac Brown Band isn’t resting on legacy. Brown’s marriage to Scott, paired with a creative resurgence and an ambitious touring schedule, signals a band very much alive and pushing forward.
