Luke Bryan started writing songs at 16. He attended Georgia Southern University and continued writing songs, forming a band and playing gigs. Bryan recorded a self-released album he sold at shows during this period, but he was reluctant to take the plunge and devote himself to music full-time. In 2001, Bryan finally relocated to Nashville. After an A&R man from Capitol Records saw him perform a set of his original material, he landed a record deal. Capitol released Bryan’s first widely distributed album, I’ll Stay Me, in the summer of 2007, following it with Doin’ My Thing in 2009, which peaked at number two on the country charts and spawned two number one singles in “Rain Is a Good Thing” and “Someone Else Calling You Baby.” “Do I” hit number two. Bryan returned with his third album, Tailgates & Tanlines, in the summer of 2011. More recently, he released Kill the Lights in 2015. Luke Bryan continues to kill it in the studio – and on the road.
