Chanteur
Country US né le 17 Juin 1976 à Leesburg (Georgie).
Singer and
songwriter Luke Bryan comes by his country influences naturally — he grew up in
Leesburg, GA, a small town 100 miles from the Alabama border where his father
grew peanuts and sold fertilizer for a living. Bryan helped his family work the
farm when he was young, but in his early teens he developed a passion for
country music, picking up his influences from his parents' record collection,
listening to the likes of George Strait,
Conway Twitty,
Ronnie Milsap,
Alan Jackson, and
Merle Haggard. When he was 14, his
folks bought Bryan his first guitar, and a year later his playing and singing
was strong enough that he started sitting in with local bands at a club
featuring live country music. At 16, Bryan starting writing songs with the help
of a pair of local tunesmiths who had enjoyed some success in Nashville, and
Bryan planned to head to Music City to try his luck after graduating from high
school until his brother died in an auto accident. Wanting to offer emotional
support to his family, Bryan opted to attend Georgia Southern University instead,
though he didn't give up music; Bryan continued writing songs, formed a band and
was playing gigs on campus or at nearby watering holes most weekends while
pursuing his studies. 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 until he returned home to work in the family business after
receiving his degree. Bryan's dad, confident of his son's talent, made him an
offer — he could either move to Nashville or be fired.
In the early fall of
2001, Bryan pulled up stakes and relocated to Nashville, where his heartfelt
songs of country life earned him a contract with one of the city's many
publishing houses. In his free time, Bryan continued to perform at local clubs,
and after an A&R man from Capitol Records saw him perform a set of his original
material, he was given 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. Doin' My
Thing peaked at number two on the country charts -- and at number six on the
Top 200 -- and spawned two number one singles in "Rain Is a Good Thing" and "Someone
Else Calling You Baby," with "Do I" hitting number two. Bryan returned with
his third album, Tailgates &
Tanlines, in the summer of 2011, its release being preceded by the single
"Country Girl (Shake It for Me)." That song was the first of four Top
Five Country singles pulled from the album: "I Don't Want This Night to End" and
"Drunk on You" both hit number one, while "Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye" peaked at
number three. This success kept Tailgates & Tanlines in the charts well into
2012, and Bryan supported the record with steady touring.
Early in 2013, Bryan compiled his four Spring Break-themed EPs as the album Spring
Break...Here to Party; it promptly became his first number one album on the pop
charts. Bryan solidified his standing in country music by winning ACM's
prestigious Entertainer of the Year award in June. That August, he released his
fourth studio album, Crash My Party, which hit number one on the country charts
and the pop charts. Each of the first four singles from the album -- the title
track, "That's My Kind of Night," "Drink a Beer," and "Play It Again" --
steadily climbed to number one on the country charts during 2013 and 2014. Bryan
chose to close out his series of Spring Break EPs in 2015 with the release of
the aptly titled Spring Break...Checkin' Out; the collection went to number one
on the Billboard country charts and three on the Billboard 200. Next up was
Bryan's fifth full-length album, Kill the Lights, which appeared in 2015 as well.
Another number one hit on the Billboard 200; it saw Bryan once again working
with producer Jeff Stevens (Jody Stevens was also brought aboard as a co-producer),
but unlike Crash My Party, the record had a heavy dose of originals from Luke:
he received writing credits on roughly half of the album's 13 songs. Kill the
Lights debuted at number one and was eventually certified platinum, partially on
the strength of the hit singles "Kick the Dust Up," "Strip It Down," "Home Alone,"
"Huntin', Lovin' and Fishin' Every Day," and "Move." In the autumn of 2016,
Bryan embarked on his third Farm Tour and released the EP Farm Tour: Here's to
the Farmer to commemorate the occasion. The following February, he sang the
National Anthem at the Super Bowl and was announced as the newest judge on
American Idol. Later that year, Bryan released the single "Light It Up," which
peaked at number one on Billboard's Country Airplay charts. It was the first
single from What Makes You Country, which arrived in December. In 2019, Bryan
resumed his seat as an American Idol judge, while releasing the singles "Knockin'
Boots" and "What She Wants Tonight." Both songs hit number one on the Country
Airplay chart and were featured on his next album, Born Here Live Here Die Here,
which arrived in August 2020 and debuted at number five on the U.S. Billboard
200 and number one on the U.S. Top Country Albums charts. A deluxe edition of
the LP appeared the following year and included the new single "Waves."
