Brantley Gilbert hails from Jefferson, Georgia, and has been a part of the country music scene since 2007, when he relocated to Nashville to pursue a career as a singer/songwriter. He started performing his songs all over town, and in 2009, he released his first album.

His first three songs he released failed to hit the country charts, but in 2011, Gilbert finally broke through on the charts with the hit song Country Must Be Country Wide. The song ran up the charts and made it all the way to number one. He followed it up with another song with the release of You Don't Know Her Like I Do.

Here is Brantley's first number one. Remember this one?

Since then, Gilbert has released smash hits like Bottoms Up, One Hell Of An Amen, Stone Cold Sober, The Weekend, and What Happens In A Small Town.
