Live reviews

Brantley Gilbert put on an amazing show at Jam in the Valley. His music is a perfect balance of rock and country. Songs like "Bottoms Up" and "Kick it in the Sticks" keep the show full of fun and energy. At this particular show he even brought out country star Colt Ford to sing, "Dirt Road Anthem", a song they recorded together that is featured on Brantley Gilbert's second album. Brantley Gilbert's bad boy, "country outlaw" attitude is so much fun to watch as he is performing. He has a way of interacting with the crowd throughout the entire show; whether he is having everyone sing along or coming out to the crowd to shake hands and high five. At one particular point during the show Brantley Gilbert pulled my 8 year old son up on stage to sing "Bottoms Up" with him. Watching Brantley Gilbert singing with him on stage and getting the crowd into the song at the same time was so entertaining. I have seen Brantley Gilbert twice, and to be honest I cannot wait to see him again. I would totally recommend anyone who enjoys music and/or concerts to go to a Brantley Gilbert concert. You will not be disappointed.
