Stumble across this artist after searching Jason Aldean songs and MUCH prefer Brantley Gilbert. Once you hear how it is originally sung Jason Aldean versions fall short. The rest of the songs are kick a$$! Please keep more like this coming!!! And please, please Jason Aldean don't short change In the Sticks!!!

I bought this because I was interested in Brantley's music but at $2.99 (it was on sale) we gave it a shot and have been pleasantly surprised. It's more rock-country with some beautifully written slower songs intermixed.

Favorite songs:

She's my kind of crazy
Saving Amy

I expect Brantley to be a breakout star in country music.

This guy is incredible. This CD is sick. I have been to countless concerts around the country, from rock acts to country acts, but my most memorable concert was when I saw the Brantley Gilbert Band at a small bar in Macon, Ga. Spend a few bucks and get this CD, chances are if you are a fan of ANY kind of music, then you will enjoy this.

5.0 out of 5 stars Real Life, Real Music March 16, 2010

By M. Baker

Format:MP3 Music

I know this is his story, but its the real life of this CD. Somebody in Nashville is finally writing songs about their own life... Best CD I ever Bought. Period.

Brantley Gilbert knows that tomorrow is no guarantee. Just over five years ago the talented singer/songwriter was ignoring his deepest ambition of becoming a country singer and was just going through the motions of everyday life. It wasn't until a nearly-fatal car accident that Brantley opened his eyes, realized the importance of living each day to the fullest, and decided to pursue his love for music as a career.

Brantley was born and raised in the small town of Jefferson, Georgia, just outside of Athens city limits. It is that upbringing and small town influence Brantley credits toward allowing him to cultivate his unique sound. With well-known rock bands REM and the B-52's having roots nearby, Brantley's taste in music always swayed toward a rock feel, but his true-to-life testimony of heartache, trials, triumph, and success found a home in country music.

After taking the stage night-after-night with just his guitar and opening for other country artists throughout the southeast, Brantley began to notice familiar faces in the crowds. A group of believers who shared Brantley's passion for life and music had developed, and pretty soon the following had taken-on a life of its own. Brantley quickly realized that his acoustic shows--however intimate--didn't satisfy his audience's thirst for his rock-infused country music. In order to meet their demand, Brantley formed a band.

"We went from these acoustic shows to a bona fide country-rock-soul show that is wide-ass open," says Gilbert. "Even when we play a ballad it's high energy...."

With the fans demanding new music from Brantley, he came to Nashville, Tennessee where he soon signed with Warner Chappell Publishing and began to develop music for a debut album release. One of his songs, "The Best of Me," was recorded by Jason Aldean and earned a spot on his Walmart exclusive release (WIDE OPEN) and ITunes. Since, Brantley has signed a record deal with Average Joe's Entertainment and collaborated with top-charting act and labelmate Colt Ford to write and record, "Dirt Road Anthem," which is currently featured on Ford's multiple-week Top 25 Billboard album, RIDE THROUGH THE COUNTRY.

"I've realized that life can be very short, and everyone should take advantage of it," he said. "If you're gonna live, do something with it. Make it great."

And great it is. Brantley will celebrate a national album release in 2009 with A MODERN DAY PRODIGAL SON which features hit singles, "G.R.I.T.S." and "Whenever We're Alone."

As tour dates multiply throughout the South, Brantley's fan base continues to expand, and like most artists these days, fans can stay updated about tour dates and news via MySpace. His page garners more than 25,000 listeners daily-- a number that has brought him to the #1 spot on MySpace Music Charts for both country and southern rock. Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 stars A Hit In The Sticks March 20, 2010

By D. Perkins

Format:Audio CD

I've been following Brantley for sometime and always loved his personal and real life songs. I was worried his recent increasing fame would make his music more mainstream. God damn was I wrong this is the country/rock all of us have been waiting for. Brantley knows his stuff. Even though I loved Modern Day Prodigal Son this album is by far his best. Hell Yea Brantley keep it up brother.
