It marks the very first time the country singer from Louisville, Illinois, will perform in the Netherlands. The show is part of his \u201cDifferent Night Same Rodeo Tour,\u201d a tour featuring 31 announced dates, and also marks his first major tour ever. For an artist who was sharing his music with the world via social media just a few years ago, that\u2019s no small feat.<\/h2>\n<p>Zimmerman broke through in 2020 without a record deal or management, just by posting videos online. That ultimately earned him a No. 1 hit on the Billboard Country Airplay chart with \u2018Fall in Love,\u2019 followed by \u2018Rock and A Hard Place.\u2019 His 2023 debut album, \u2018Religiously. The Album.,\u2019 achieved record-breaking streaming numbers, and his 2025 follow-up album, \u2018Different Night Same Rodeo,\u2019 cemented that success with collaborations and high chart positions. At Melkweg, he\u2019ll be joined by Chandler Walters as the opening act.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"an-inline\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" class=\"wp-image-86813\" src=\"https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/Roots-vieraknt-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/Roots-vieraknt-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/Roots-vieraknt-425x425.png 425w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/Roots-vieraknt-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/Roots-vieraknt-1536x1536.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/Roots-vieraknt-12x12.png 12w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/Roots-vieraknt-500x500.png 500w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/Roots-vieraknt-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/Roots-vieraknt-400x400.png 400w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/Roots-vieraknt.png 1700w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<blockquote>\n<p>For an artist who, just a few years ago, was sharing his music with the world via social media, that's no small feat.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The Max Hall is exactly the kind of venue this story belongs in: not a stadium, not an arena, but a hall where the energy of a breakthrough act really shines. Melkweg, on Lijnbaansgracht, offers that unique combination of international acts and an intimate setting like no other. For Zimmerman, who built his career from his bedroom, this kind of venue might actually make more sense than a large arena.<\/p>\n<p>The setlist features the songs that made him famous. \u2018Fall in Love\u2019 will definitely be included, as will \u2018Rock and a Hard Place.\u2019 You can also expect songs from both albums, including tracks that showcase the emotional side of *Religiously. The Album\u2018 to the broader soundscape of \u2019Different Night Same Rodeo\u2018. Anyone who still wants to attend should consider the VIP package: it costs 162.50 euros and includes a pre-show soundcheck party, early entry, an exclusive gift, a laminated pass, and a photo op at the VIP backdrop.<\/p>\n<p>The regular tickets, which cost 48.90 euros, have all sold out. That says something about how quickly Zimmerman has gone from social media to international stages. For a debut in the Netherlands, a sold-out show at Melkweg makes a strong statement, and it\u2019s fitting for an artist who has never let anything slow down his rise. Anyone who missed out on the VIP option can only hope for his next visit.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bailey Zimmerman is coming to the Netherlands for the first time and has chosen the Max Hall at Melkweg as her venue.
