Vinnie Brigante
Not many people can say that their first time singing publicly was in front of 30,000
people, but for Vinnie Brigante, this was true. How did this happen? Vinnie, a 20-
year-old Melbourne-based barber, held up a sign at Zach Bryan’s one and only
Australian show at Flemington Racecourse in December of 2023 asking to play
Bryan’s song ‘Heading South’ with him. Out of 30,000 punters, Bryan saw Vinnie, and
invited him up on stage. To everyone’s shock, including Vinnie, his friends, and family,
he could actually sing. The next day, a video from the night went viral on TikTok, and
Vinnie was asked to appear on Channel 7’s Sunrise. Fast forward to Vinnie
discovering his hidden talent, he has since been honing his craft, writing, and
recording music and is excited to share it with the world in 2024.
