Why it's here

Zac Brown Band was mid-run on its 27-date Love & Fear Tour on 2026-08-21, with August stops including Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, MD on August 15, 2026 and Forest Hills Stadium on August 27-28, 2026. [1] "Chicken Fried" is the closing number of those shows: at the band's August 2, 2026 Fenway Park concert it was played as the finale after "Colder Weather." [2] Weeks earlier the band performed the song live on July 14, 2026 during the halftime show of the FIFA World Cup semifinal between France and Spain at AT&T Stadium, and the 2008 track — the band's debut single and first Hot Country Songs No. 1 — is certified 9x platinum by the RIAA.

City pickups

City charts record their parent country as the market, so these do not add to the market count above. One line per country: how many of its rooms picked the song up, and the best of them.
