DeAnn is the debut studio album by American singer-songwriter Zach Bryan, released on August 24, 2019, through Belting Bronco. The album is named after Bryan's mother, who died in 2016.[1] The album first charted in 2021, and debuted on the US Billboard 200 in 2023 following the increase in Bryan's profile after his chart successes in 2022.
Content[edit]
The album was recorded at an Airbnb in Jacksonville, Florida, where Bryan was stationed at the time in the US Navy. It was produced by Leo Alba, and included contributions from Bryan's friends. Mattresses were put around the walls "to improve the sound".[2] A 2023 assessment by Stereogum's Rachel Brodsky described it as "bare-bones as it gets, with Bryan recording in AirBnBs with just himself and a guitar".[1]
