Luke Bryan Biography

 Luke Bryan (born Thomas Luther Bryan in Leesburg, Georgia) is an American country music singer-songwriter who made his debut in 2007 with the single "All My Friends Say", a Top 5 single on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts. His first album, I'll Stay Me, was released on Capitol Records in 2007. Bryan also co-wrote Billy Currington's single "Good Directions", which spent three weeks at Number One on the Billboard country charts in the summer of 2007. He moved to Nashville in 2001, eventually landing a deal as a songwriter; among his first cuts was the title track of Travis Tritt's 2005 album My Honky Tonk History. An A&R representative at Capitol Records saw Bryan perform at a club, and signed him to a recording contract. His debut single, "All My Friends Say", was released in early 2007, just as country music artist Billy Currington was climbing the Hot Country Songs charts with "Good Directions", which Bryan co-wrote. "Good Directions" spent three weeks at Number One on the Billboard U.S. Hot Country Songs charts in May 2007, while "All My Friends Say" reached a peak of #5. In August 2007, Bryan's debut album for Capitol, entitled I'll Stay Me, was released. The album's second single, "We Rode in Trucks", peaked in the Top 40 in early 2008. A third single, "Country Man", was released in February 2008 and has entered Top 40 as well. Bryan and his wife, Caroline, welcomed their first child, Thomas Boyer Bryan, on March 18, 2008.
