'Hawk Tuah' Girl makes surprise appearance at Zach Bryan's Nashville concert

The viral sensation known as the 'Hawk Tuah girl' made a surprise appearance at Zach Bryan's eclectic Quittin Time Tour concert on Saturday in Nashville's Nissan Stadium, as shown in this video.

In a flare of tradition, Bryan took advantage of the encore "Revival" slot to introduce whatever famous faces might be hanging around to lend their voices for backing vocals. This Saturday, it was Hailey Welch, the woman who shot to fame thanks to a video sweeping the internet.

Making her debut public appearance since becoming an online phenomenon , Welch chipped in with her spirited signature catchphrase: "HAWK TUAH! ". But while Welch might steal the headlines from the gig, she wasn't the top-billed guest performer on the night at Nissan Stadium. That honor went to Kacey Musgraves, who jumped in mid-show to deliver their joint track "I Remember Everything," reports The Rolling Stone.
