I\u2019ve built up a bit of a relationship with them and they keep supporting me and encouraging me to keep going.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI actually sang in Anfield the week the first Guide article about my campaign came out and a couple from Mid-Wales came up to me and asked how I was getting on! It was so random that they knew about me but in a good way, so it\u2019s been really nice that people I don\u2019t know are genuinely rooting for me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"666\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Singer-Louis-Gibney-2-e1770728563801.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-233899\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Louis, who combines his job at Parliament Square Coffee in Liverpool city centre with gigging at weekends, says he\u2019s tried \u201cevery possible avenue\u201d to get noticed by Zach Bryan or one of his band, but so far without success.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI found an email that was supposedly his management and I emailed them, and I\u2019ve been tagging all the band members in my posts but I\u2019ve not heard anything back from them.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI\u2019ve posted every single day so there are 200 videos on my TikTok. When I started off I was planning to do every Zach Bryan song but then I got to about day 100 and I was doing songs that hardly anyone would have heard of.\u00a0 I decided to go back on the cycle because it\u2019s more appealing to do songs that everyone knows so that\u2019s what I\u2019ve been doing ever since.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Louis says he\u2019ll be standing at the Anfield concert with a group of mates and his younger brother, while his mum, dad and sister are in the Kop.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe\u2019ll be right down at the front and, if I\u2019ve not heard anything by then, I\u2019m hoping to take a sign, that\u2019ll be my last throw of the dice.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI\u2019ve been in touch with fan services asking what\u2019s the biggest sign I can bring in and I told them I\u2019d only put it up between songs because I don\u2019t want to ruin it for other fans.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI\u2019ve been keeping tabs on his tour since about March, so every morning after the gig I\u2019ll wake up and check to see if he sang the song and if someone got up for it. At most gigs people have done so I know he is still doing it, I\u2019m just hoping he does it at Anfield.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHe\u2019s my favourite artist, I started the campaign before the tickets came out and then got them not long after, so either way \u2013 even if I don\u2019t get on stage \u2013 I\u2019m going to enjoy the day. This would just be an amazing bonus.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To help Louis get up on stage with Zach Bryan in 11 days\u2019 time, follow his campaign on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@louisgibneymusic?lang=en-GB\" type=\"link\" id=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@louisgibneymusic?lang=en-GB\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">TikTok.<\/a><br \/>\nFind out more about Louis\u2019s story <a href=\"https:\/\/theguideliverpool.com\/litherland-singers-tiktok-campaign-to-join-zach-bryan-on-stage-at-anfield\/\" type=\"link\" id=\"https:\/\/theguideliverpool.com\/litherland-singers-tiktok-campaign-to-join-zach-bryan-on-stage-at-anfield\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Find out what\u2019s good up North on our new platform, The Northern Guide.<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>From the best hotels, beauty spots, days out, food and more up North \u2013 visit<a href=\"https:\/\/thenorthernguide.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">\u00a0thenorthernguide.com<\/a>\u00a0and follow The Northern Guide on Instagram\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/thenorthernguideuk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">HERE.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>                <script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><script async src=\"\/\/www.tiktok.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A Liverpool teenager\u2019s TikTok campaign to sing with Zach Bryan at his Anfield gig has hit day 200&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":998723,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[8815],"tags":[748,393,4884,179,277147,269,449,16,15,203160],"class_list":["post-998722","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-liverpool","tag-britain","tag-england","tag-great-britain","tag-liverpool","tag-louis-gibney","tag-music","tag-tiktok","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-zach-bryan"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/116675984232544126","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/998722","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=998722"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/998722\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/998723"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=998722"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=998722"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=998722"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
