Cindy Wright
Country music star Luke Bryan is doing his thing. Bryan first sang his way into the hearts of country music lovers in 2007. His first single was "All My Friends Say" from his debut album "I'll Stay Me." The song reached the Top 5 position on the Billboard charts. The song he wrote for Billy Currington also in 2007, "Good Directions" became a Number One hit. Bryan's other two singles from his debut album were "We Rode in Trucks," which charted at number thirty-three and "Country Man" that charted in the Top 10 position.

Luke Bryan released his second album "Doin My Thing" in 2009. The first single off the album was "Do I," and charted in the Top 2 spot in December 2009. His second single from the album "Rain is a Good Thing" was released on January 25, 2010, and in July it became his first Number One single on Billboard .

Bryan has been a very busy man, and his songs are being played all over country music radio stations. 2010 has proven to be a great year for Bryan. At the Academy of Country Music Awards he won for Top New Solo Vocalist and Top New Artist. Luke Bryan also won CMT Music Awards USA Weekend Breakthrough Video of the Year for his song "Do I." Bryan was nominated for new artist of the year at the Country Music Associations Awards. On December 6, 2010 at 8PM ET a new awards show will air on Fox. The show is called American Country Awards. Fans get the opportunity to vote for the favorites in several categories. Luke Bryan has four nominations.

I have seen Bryan a couple times in concert, and also got the chance to meet him. There is one thing about Luke Bryan that leaves a great impression on you. He is a very humble and kind man. He always takes the time to come out and meet fans and when time allows takes pictures with them. In an interview posted at The Boot, Bryan had this to say about meeting fans, "If there are people out by the bus, I'll come off the bus and sign autographs. I always want to be accessible," Luke tells The Boot. "If a fan wants to meet me, that opportunity is always there. That's the way you have to be, whether you're making ten thousand [dollars] or a million a show. I try to be that way; I can't say I'm the best, but I'm in the top percentage."

Country music star Luke Bryan is doing his thing, and bringing more and more fans with him along the way.
