About Brantley Gilbert

  • You might not know his name, but it's a sure bet you know his music. Have you ever rocked out to Jason Aldean's "My Kinda Party" or "Dirt Road Anthem"? Well, Gilbert is the writer behind those smash hits, blending country, rock and even rap into a unique sound that speaks to today's country fans. He's spent the last five years on the road developing a high-octane live show and a devoted fan base which helped land him a performance slot on this summer's Country Throwdown Tour with Willie Nelson and Jamey Johnson.
