Meet Braydon Zink

Based in Spring Branch, Texas, Braydon Zink traces his roots to the small town of Iliff, Colorado. While attending college with plans to follow in his family’s footsteps as a third-generation lineman, Zink decided to pursue a long-held passion: country music. His musical journey began at the age of 10 when his grandmother introduced him to the organ, and he quickly learned to play traditional gospel songs. From there, he picked up the trumpet, mastering the art of reading music and expanding his musical foundation. At just 11 years old, armed with saved-up allowance money, Zink bought his first guitar—a $30 treasure from Walmart. Inspired by Elvis Presley and Johnny Cash records from his grandparents’ collection, he taught himself to play, laying the groundwork for a lifelong love of music.

During his high school years, sports took center stage, but Zink’s guitar remained a constant companion in his free time. A series of severe concussions ended his dreams of pursuing collegiate athletics, but fate had other plans. Turning to his guitar, Zink began writing and singing his own songs, pouring his heart into every lyric and melody. This pivotal moment marked the beginning of his musical career, and soon he was performing across northeastern Colorado, building a loyal following along the way.

With his sights set on Austin, the “Live Music Capital of the World,” Zink made the leap to Texas, where he has called home for the past decade. A seasoned performer, he has played over 1,200 shows across the United States, sharing the stage with country music legends such as Rodney Atkins, Travis Tritt, Tracy Byrd, Joe Diffie, Turnpike Troubadours, Pat Green, Jack Ingram, Cory Morrow, Randall King, Roger Creager, Johnny Rodriguez, and Hal Ketchum, among many others.

Zink’s music is a testament to his ability to bridge memories with melodies. His authentic lyrics resonate deeply, tugging at heartstrings and touching souls in a way that draws listeners into the stories he tells. With every song, Zink invites audiences to connect with the raw emotion and timeless charm of his craft, solidifying his place as a true storyteller in the world of country music.
