Luke Bryan is a fresh, young, country artist that is blending old school country with pop beats. His latest single “Rain is a Good Thing” makes you want to drive with the windows down and the stereo up. His songs are perfect for summer weather with bonfires and friends. It’s easy to listen to and will always put a smile on your face. Luke Bryan’s musical style is similar to other pop-country singers such as Jason Aldean and Keith Urban. Because of its acoustic guitar and straight singing sound, it differs from pop singers like Adam Lambert. Dan Milliken of Country Universe.net says that “this guy actually has something”. Dan and I are on the same page. Luke Bryan definitely has a lot to offer. Recently he did a cover of One Republic’s “Apologize”. Country Weekly.com thinks claims it proves not everything is meant to be country. I disagree; I believe that Luke Bryan refreshes the song with country boy flare and a clean voice proving that country singers aren’t all grit. Two songs that are particularly memorable to me are “We Rode in Trucks” and “Rain is a Good Thing”. I enjoy these songs because they remind me of the summer and of the time I spend on the farm, at the fair, and with friends. In my opinion, Luke Bryan is worth our time and money, as you can see by the following nominations.
Currently at the People’s Choice Awards he’s nominated for: Favorite Male Artist, Favorite Song, and Favorite Country artist.
American Country Awards nominee for: Male Artist of the Year, Album of the Year, and Single of the Year.
The American Music Awards has nominated him for Favorite Country Male Artist as well.
