Zach Bryan Stops Concert After Being Struck by Thrown Object for Second Time in a Week

The country singer halted his Portland performance to address unruly fan behavior, following a similar incident days earlier in Washington.

Zach Bryan paused his November 27 concert in Portland, Oregon, after being hit in the leg by an object resembling a nicotine can while performing his song 'Tourniquet.'
The incident marks the second time in a week that an object was thrown onstage during Bryan's concerts, with the first occurring on November 23 in Tacoma, Washington, where his guitarist was struck.
Bryan addressed the Portland audience, urging fans not to throw items at concerts and briefly throwing the object back into the crowd before resuming his performance.
The incidents come during a period of public scrutiny for Bryan, following his recent breakup with podcaster Brianna 'Chickenfry' LaPaglia, who has accused him of emotional abuse and coercion.
Concert safety concerns have grown industry-wide, with other artists like Bebe Rexha and Adele also speaking out about items being thrown onstage during performances.
