Luke Bryan LIVE!- Friday, September 26, 2008

A country singer, songwriter, and talented musician, you may have heard Bryan crooning "All My Friends Say", "We Rode in Trucks" or "Baby's on the Way". His songwriting skills resulted in the top spot on the country singles charts in May 2007 with his song "Good Directions". Bryan was named one of Billboard magazine's new faces to watch last year.

This rural Georgia native is a graduate of Georgia Southern University. For a time Luke worked in his father's businesses- a peanut mill and fertilizer plant. In September 2001, unhappy and encouraged by his father, he headed for Nashville where he is currently under contract with Capitol Records Nashville. Bryan and wife, Caroline, became the parents of their first child - Thomas Boyer "Bo" Bryan - on March 18, 2008.
