With back-to-back Platinum albums and a
grassroots following millions strong, Brantley Gilbert’s music has been shared,
covered and adopted as the soundtrack to Saturday night and Sunday morning by
audiences around the world. The Georgia native who started as the defiant
life-of-the-party can still go ‘til sunrise, but he’s also emerged as something
far greater: the leader of a massive tribe of hard-working, fun-loving
believers for whom electric guitar-shredding, rapping, and twang can go
hand-in-hand-in-hand. They call themselves the BG Nation, and when the BG
Nation watches Gilbert on a stage, they don’t just see a star. They see
themselves. Seven No. 1 hits punctuate his career: “Country Must be Country
Wide,” “You Don’t Know Her Like I Do,” CMA Awards Song of the Year nominee
“Dirt Road Anthem,” “My Kinda Party,” RIAA 5x Platinum-certified “Bottoms Up,”
“One Hell of an Amen” and collaboration with Lindsay Ell “What Happens In A Small
Town.” Gilbert’s landmark record
Just As I Am clinched the
2014 American Music Award for Favorite Country Album. Earning praise from
the
New York Times,
NPR,
American Songwriter,
and more, Gilbert has mined a rich vein of conflict between the party and the
pew on all of his albums. Instead of toiling in limbo, unable to enjoy good
times for fear of Judgment Day, Gilbert fully lives––rowdy friend, man of
faith, devoted husband, smitten new father––just as he is. For additional
