Zach Harmon is a home town boy that knows all the back roads of Abilene, the way of life and the west Texas pace and Zach does an excellent job painting that picture, in his latest single 'Those Stars Still Shine.' The second you hear his song, you're sent back in time remembering all the old landmarks and things you did.

Zach Harmon's got a hit song on his hands and as soon as you hear it, you'll agree.
