Essential Albums
- Luke Bryan began blending country with dance music and pop on 2011’s Tailgates & Tanlines, and follow-up Crash My Party finds him doubling down on the mixture. “That’s My Kind of Night” manages to seamlessly mate banjo picking to Jeep beats, while a guitar tapestry meets hip-hop-derived grooves on the bittersweetly fraternal “Blood Brothers.” But spare, acoustic-based ballad “Drink a Beer” and the raw, rocking riffs of “Out Like That” show Bryan’s got multiple strings to his bow.
- Tailgates & Tanlines is a good title for an album overflowing with fun-in-the-sun songs. The uplifting “Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye” rocks warmly with the familiar tones and cascading vocal harmonies of '70s AM radio, recalling when bands like The Eagles and Pure Prairie League brought twangy pedal steel to classic rock airwaves. “Drunk on You” is a feel-good country-rock ballad with slowly plucked banjo strings resonating under a cute chorus in which Bryan serenades his muse with the endearingly corny lyrics “I’m a little drunk on you/And high on summertime.” Rhett Akins cowrote “I Don’t Want This Night to End,” a contagiously catchy standout where a rapidly phrased verse is nicely balanced with a flowing refrain.

About Luke Bryan
One of country music’s brightest 21st-century stars, Luke Bryan rose from humble beginnings to become a stadium headliner whose affable charm and resolute optimism fueled a series of carefree country-rock jams. Born in Leesburg, GA, in 1976, Bryan began playing guitar as a teen, and while in college at Georgia Southern University he gigged on and around campus. Shortly after he graduated, he moved to Nashville, where he broke in as a songwriter before scoring his own record deal. His 2007 debut single “All My Friends Say,” a hip-shaking recollection of a rough night out, blended honky-tonk attitude with heartbroken candor. Bryan would become known for being one of Nashville’s more genre-busting performers, covering Lady Gaga and OneRepublic songs while releasing singles like the hip-hop-tinged “Country Girl (Shake It for Me)” and the shimmering ballad “Do I.” His time spent on the college circuit inspired his series of Spring Break EPs, a party-minded run of releases that, along with tracks like the stomping “Kick the Dust Up” and the chilled-out Florida Georgia Line collaboration “This Is How We Roll,” positioned him as the king of the brawny subgenre called “bro country.” Yet Bryan has held on to the sense of humanity and hope that informed his earliest songwriting, with the elegiac “Drink a Beer” and the sanguine “Most People Are Good” showing off his vulnerable side, and his annual Farm Tour benefit concerts bringing his celebratory live sets to the rural areas that shaped him.
