KOSI 101.1

We have at least two things in common with Christian McCaffery…we’re from Colorado and we love Zach Bryan!

McCaffrey, the son of Denver Broncos great Ed McCaffrey, was born and raised in Castle Rock, Colo. Christian graduated from Valor Christian High School in Highlands Ranch in 2014, and who knew he was also quite a musician!

Zach Bryan headlined the 2026 Madden Bowl on Friday night at San Francisco’s Chase Center, but his usual piano player was missing. Instead, it was Christian McCaffrey from the San Francisco 49ers on the keys.

The crowd lost it as Christian played a pretty sweet solo. Afterward, Zach thanked him online saying, “Thank you to my brother Christian McCaffrey filling in on keys tonight…We love ya always!”

McCaffrey also played keys with Bryan at Red Rocks back in 2023.
