Luke Bryan

Bio:Luke was raised in Leesburg, Georgia. At age fourteen, his parents bought him his first guitar, and after learning to play it, he joined various local bands and began to play in local clubs.[1] After graduating high school, Bryan planned to move to Nashville, Tennessee; however, this move was delayed, due to the death of his brother, Chris. Luke later attended Georgia Southern University, and continued to work on his singing and songwriting skills. He also self-released an album, which he sold at shows.

In 2001, Luke moved to Nashville, eventually landing a deal as a songwriter.[1] An A&R representative at Capitol Records saw Bryan perform at a club, and signed the artist to a recording contract. Bryan's 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", a single which Luke co-wrote. "Good Directions" spent three weeks at Number One on the Billboard U.S. Hot Country Songs charts in May 2007
