<p>Having rocked last year’s C2C Festival at The O2 in London last year, hard-hitting country outlier <strong><a title="BRANTLEY GILBERT" href="https://countrymusicontour.com/brantley-gilbert-concert-tour-tickets/">BRANTLEY GILBERT</a> </strong>will return to the UK this May as part of his international <em>Blackout</em> tour. Among the concerts is a date at London’s Shepherd’s Bush Empire.</p>

<p>Gilbert is a force to be reckoned with. He’s notched six number one singles, including <a title="Jason Aldean" href="https://stubhub.prf.hn/click/camref:1100ljXyr/pubref:WPSAldean/ar:CMNBAutoLink/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.stubhub.com%2Fjason-aldean-tickets%2F">Jason Aldean</a>’s ‘My Kind of Party’ and the CMA Song of the Year nominee ‘Dirt Road Anthem’, and earned back-to-back platinum albums with <em>Halfway To Heaven </em>and <em>Just As I Am</em>, the latter being the 2014 American Music Awards Favourite Country Album. With a storied stage show, one that is high velocity as it is long on songs drawn from the rough hewn artist’s own life, the Jefferson, Georgia-born and –raised songwriter believes in cutting deep veins of truth into his music.</p>
<p><em>“People everywhere like to raise hell and have a good time,”</em> says Gilbert. <em>“It’s one of the things, no matter where I go, people seem to agree on. But they also want their music to dig a little deeper – and maybe show a little bit more of how life really is. I may write drinking songs and fighting songs, but I also write songs about faith, about hitting your knees and being lost and trying to be the best man I can be. I think the most hardcore rowdy people, when you look inside, need that just as much. I know I do&#8230; These songs are all about making my way through world, so they’ve been road-tested.”</em></p>
<p><em>Just As I Am </em>topped <em>Billboard</em> and iTunes’ Country Albums chart upon release, ultimately becoming the third-highest Country seller of 2014 Featuring the Multi-Platinum number one ‘Bottoms Up,’ the nearly-double platinum number one ‘One Hell Of An Amen’ and Gold-certified ‘Small Town Throwdown,’ <em>Just As I Am</em> remained in the Top 5 best-selling Country Albums of 2015 as well.</p>
<p>Given the demand for his music – and wanting to deepen the story, Brantley released <em>Just As I Am &#8211; Platinum Edition</em> on May 19, one year after the original album’s release. Having written each of the 19 tracks on the expanded version, <em>The Platinum Edition </em>shared a more intimate glimpse into this chapter of his life with songs like the title track ‘Just As I Am,’ as well as his current single ‘Stone Cold Sober’.</p>
