Brantley Gilbert Concert Schedule
Combining the outlaw country of Eric Church with the blue-collar rock of Bruce Springsteen, Brantley Gilbert is one of the harder-edged names to emerge from the contemporary Nashville scene. The self-proclaimed small-town guy has also barely left the road since emerging in the late '00s, supporting the likes of Willie Nelson, Toby Keith and Tim McGraw, as well as headlining his own tours: 2012's Hell on Wheels, 2016's Take It Outside and 2018's The Ones That Like Me. As you'd expect, the Brantley Gilbert live experience is a loud and proud one, with his array of fist-pumping, foot-stomping anthems often accompanied by dazzling pyrotechnics, swirling lasers and LCD visuals.
Brantley Gilbert Background
Born in Jefferson, Georgia, in 1985, Gilbert grew up listening to a mix of Southern rock, alternative and country, but only decided to pursue a music career himself following a near-fatal truck accident at the age of 19. After initially performing as a solo acoustic artist, Gilbert assembled his own band to help bring his rowdy sound to life and in 2009 released his debut album, Modern Day Prodigal Son. Follow-up Halfway to Heaven arrived a year later, but only found a large audience in 2011 when it was reissued by Gilbert's new label, Valory Music Co. The record not only reached No. 4 on the Billboard 200 but also spawned two US Country No. 1 singles, "You Don't Know Her Like I Do" and "Country Must Be Country Wide," both of which helped Gilbert pick up the CMA Triple Play Award in 2013. Gilbert consolidated his new-found success with wins at the ACMs and iHeartRadio Awards, and 2014's chart-topping Just As I Am, which also sold over one million copies and produced two more No. 1 hits, "Bottoms Up" and "One Hell of an Amen." Just like its predecessor, 2017's The Devil Don't Sleep peaked at No. 1 on the US Country chart and No. 2 on the Billboard 200, and was supported by a sell-out tour of the same name. Gilbert also has a strong social media presence, amassing over one million followers on both Instagram and Twitter, and 3.5 million on Facebook.
Best concert me and the fam has been to in a very long time! Great music, great artists, and Brantley was absolutely amazing to see at the DCU center!!
Wow! Brantley Gilbert rocked the Santander Arena. One of the best concerts I have been too!! Venue was great. Easy to get drinks and snacks and easy to find our seats. I will definitely go back to see another concert there
We wanted to go to the show because we’re big fans of the opening acts - Adam Calhoun and Demun Jones - but man did Brantley Gilbert earn two new fans!! What a great show!! ACal and Demun were amazing but Brantley knows how to put on a show!!! Blasting fire and smoke, singing a mix of his old and new songs, plus songs he’s written and tributes to other artists! The icing on the cake was getting to meet ACal! What a night - Bottoms up!!
It was Brantley Gilbert! Of course he put on an excellent show. Venue was good. Very crowded but good. Show Was phenomenal. Played multiple new songs and old ones.. Even a cover.
Brantley Gilbert was amazing. Demon amd Adam Calhoun were also great. We would recommend seeing them if you have the chance
He put on a great show. Just like his openers. But the mixing got worse and worse. Couldn’t actually hear him sing. Guitar and drums drowned out his singing. And towards the end it was just a jumble of sound. Very sad we were looking forward to seeing him too.
He is one of the best performers that I have seen. The whole band and stage performances were incredible. I would definitely go see him again in a heart beat!!
We had a blast at the concert! Brantley Gilbert, Adam Calhoun, & Demun Jones put on an amazing show. The pyrotechnics were incredible. We loved how there was some old Hank Williams Jr, Toby Keith, and 90s rock mixed in. We greatly appreciate the patriotic messages!
I have never had a bad BG concert, he is amazing to see live.
From the Q&A session to the end of the show was a totally awesome experience. Demun Jones, Adam Calhoun and of course Brantley Gilbert all put on a memorable music experience. By far on on the best concerts I have been to.
