Members of Zach Bryan’s touring band joined the country singer in showing solidarity for the people in Gaza, the West Bank and those involved in the “Free Palestine” movement during his Friday, October 2, concert.
Bryan, 30, wore a black T-shirt that read, “Free Palestine,” during his concert at Gillette Stadium in Boston. His drummer, Nate Head, and his guitarist, Noah Le Gros, also wore gear supporting the Palestinian cause to the show.
“We are so honored to see musician Noah Le Gros rocking our Palestine Jersey on stage at the Gillette Stadium,” Wear the Peace tweeted on Friday. “Noah and Zach both stood for Palestine tonight on a stage that tried to ban the simple mention of it.”
Le Gros shared footage of his jersey to his Instagram Stories, as did Head.
“RIP HIND RAJAB,” Head wrote on his page, referring to a 5-year-old girl killed by Israeli Defense Forces soldiers in the Gaza Strip in 2024. “FREE PALESTINE.” (According to United Nations and UNICEF reports, at least 21,000 Palestinian children have been killed since the deadly Hamas terrorist attacks on October 7, 2023.)
Bryan, for his part, has not publicly addressed his or his team’s decision to wear Pro-Palestine gear to Friday’s show at Gillette, the stadium owned by Robert Kraft.

Kraft, 85, recently made waves after Macklemore claimed last month that New England Patriots owner strong-armed Ed Sheeran’s Loop Tour touring company into dismissing the rapper as an opening act following backlash to his stint at Sheeran’s New Jersey shows. (Macklemore, 43, chanted “Free Palestine” during his two performances at MetLife Stadium.)
“I have dedicated much of my life to building bridges between all people. I believe deeply that all lives are worth protecting,” Kraft wrote in a September 16 statement, revealing he and Sheeran, 35, each made $2 million donations to provide global humanitarian aid. “I’d like to ask the people who are speaking in support of the Palestine people to know that for decades, I have supported efforts that create opportunities for Palestinians, and have brought young Palestinians and Israelis together to build businesses, create jobs and forge relationships.”
Kraft has not publicly addressed Bryan and his band’s Pro-Palestinian wardrobe.
As for Sheeran, he has continued on the Loop Tour without support acts or a backing band after they all left in solidarity with Macklemore. The Grammy winner, whose Gillette shows were canceled last week for inclement weather, has enlisted a “surprise guest” to open his Saturday, October 3, concert in Atlanta.
Macklemore, for his part, is gearing up for a three-night Free Palestine Tour in Europe. He will donate all proceeds to various causes supporting the movement and the Palestinian people.
